Auraelish attends school at the coral temple, and learns many things taking breaks to eat, rest, recreate, ponder, and digest the lessons and training he receives on a scheduled routine. The Exact routine is left out of Auraelish''s perception, He only notices things tend to switch up just as he begins to need a change for whatever reason. Time passes at lighting speed as far as Auraelish is concerned. With his escorting guardian Eliysiah not far away, but not stuck to him like the scales on a fish. Whenever the two are together they each tend to mingle limbs with each other, and enjoy each others warmth subconsciously.


    Eliysiah Tries her best to focus on her own studies whenever apart from the young fellow. But when they are together her focus is on him more then anything else. "Try jnot to smother your charge'' said to Eliysiah  by her superior, some concern but understanding in his voice.''indeed''," I am drawn to this one in particular for some reason out of all the shimmers I have guided over my time as a shimmer guardian." Nodding in recognition, the superior consoles this fellow guardian. Surface dwellers might think of them as siblings in a working relationship. "your attraction to young Auraelish may be because of him being your last shimmer ward, and the increased time you have already spent with him, this is to expected to some extent. He did awake sooner than most also yes?", "indeed, Thalor your guidance is appreciated as always. You have been so very kind to me ever since the day we first met. Truthfully I have loved our time together." laughing "perhaps a little too much deer, did you ever take a mate?". "once or twice, my duty to the tribe was my greatest love". "Probably for the best, I suppose. Make sure you take time to yourself before young Auraelish Graduates from the cathedral schooling here. You might not get a chance for some time after that."


    After agreeing to breed soon [for the good of the tribe and her own well being] Eliysiah Mingles with the throng of guardians moving through the under halls of the magnificent cathedral structure. Sharing info and intimacy is a part of her duty, which doubles as maintenance for her mental, physical, and spiritual self. The pleasant atmosphere relaxes and invigorates each of the guardians passing through it. About half the guardians never learn to enjoy it as she does, or even take part. Some of the guardians are experts at finding ways to avoid any and all contact with others of their kind and nexus.

    Mingling for Eclipsa is both intimate and convenient as some might say. The individuals while intertwining limbs can practice a form of contact communication. The many tube legs under each limb touching, brushing, tapping out signals or even latching onto the other. These complex signals allow the Eclipsa an immense amount of data transmission during the mingling. Thoughts, feelings, expressions, and even detailed images like the sights they each have encountered can be shared. This system of communication is heavily employed among the various tribes of Eclipsa, but especially The luminari tribes guardians and warrior nexus members. The other nexuses use it plenty as well, but not to the extent of these two more militant nexuses.


    The more militant nexuses often converge to deal with a threat or to improve threat response. As well they also trade and cross train to give each other a health check of sorts. The ability to communicate books of data, and complex concepts allows these groups to an immensely efficient and effective military force whenever such force is employed. The guardians learn the light beam abilities and other abilities to protect their charges against most threats or simply to aid the youngsters growth in life. The warriors however learn a variety of other things including swimming while attacking in all directions with light or darkness attacks. Only a hand full of guardians can use darkness abilities. All of them in the upper echelon with the guardian elder. Even seeing them is an honor to the other guardians or any of the tribe for that matter. Some other tribes even recognize and respect these upper echelon Eclipsa. Much of this is taught to young Eclipsa at places like the coral cathedral.


    Inside the coral cathedral the floor and walls change shade and even color often as if to indicate what purpose the room one is in was built for. Study rooms, mess hall, library halls,floor chapels, play rooms & training rooms[same thing really but different from each other], mingling halls on each of 5 floors 2 of them below ground level. Suffice to say the coral cathedral is plenty large enough to have such a prestigious name. Other tribes or even nexus of eclipsa call similar places academialis or collegium.
