Summary: "Someone Is Sabotaging the Elemental Magic Academy?"

Key Plot Points

• The Elemental Magic Academy is completed after less than half a month of construction by skilled dwarves, built in the style of a Roman arena/theater with a football-pitch-sized practice ground, a semi-enclosed design, and an openable/closable ceiling at 30 meters tall.
• Katelyle inspects the finished academy and tests it by casting multiple spells: "Light of Hope" (creating a small sun-like illumination), "Spirit of Wind" (levitation), and various other enchantments that send waves of immense magical energy across the structure.
• Professor McGonagall and Severus Snape independently sense the magical disturbance from their locations; Snape concludes Katelyle's power rivals Dumbledore.
