==School of the Heavens==

==School of the Heavens==

The realm of heaven is a [[school]] whose day is composed of three periods; [[home]], [[work]], and [[rest]]. In these periods are taught three courses; [[facts]], [[meanings]], and [[values]]. Between each period, ample time is provided for [[play]]. On the playground are found three [[spheres]] that correspond to the courses studied. One is large and heavy, always moving in a [[linear]] [[manner|fashion]]. The second is larger than the first, but ever so [[light]], and moves in an [[Random|unpredictable]] and surprising manner while the third is truly [[glorious]], more like a bubble of varying sizes and shapes. It [[Vortex|swirls]] with eddies of ever-changing [[colors]], and can be [[touch]]ed only with the [[breath]].  Some children are drawn to one of these more than the others, but all [[play]] with each at different times.  While the object of the school is unwritten, it is rumored to be the [[growth]] of [[affection]] that emerges as the children come to know each other, only better than they do their lessons.
