RELEVANCE OF CHOSEN DARKE TASK: 7.

  Highly relevant.

  METHOD OF ENTERING THE DARKE: 6.

  Septimus, I dock one mark due to your unauthorized use of the Darke Disguise. I do realize that without it you would not have survived, but even so, I feel the rules must be given some respect here.

  MAGYKAL SKILL: 7.

  Your Revoke of the Banish was word perfect first time. You used your past connection with the Flyte Charm to great effect (see me later about supervised access to this from now on). You also attained Synchronicity with a dragon. What more can I say?

  DECISION-MAKING AND INITIATIVE: 7.

  You used your initiative to decide where to enter the Darke and why. You used logic to reason your way through the Darke Halls. Excellent.

  GENERAL CONDUCT: 7.

  You were polite to the young ghost and showed great presence of mind when encountering Tertius Fume. Very good indeed.

  METHOD OF EXITING THE DARKE: 7.

  Very good.

  SUCCESS OF DARKE TASK: 7.

  Totally successful.

  TUTOR’S ASSESSMENT OF SUITABILITY OF CANDIDATE TO INCORPORATE A BALANCED AND RESPONSIBLE USE OF THE DARKE IN HIS OR HER FUTURE STUDIES: 8.

  I consider this candidate eminently suitable. I also reserve my right to give what mark I choose.

  TOTAL SCORE OUT OF 49: 49.

  DARKE WEEK RESULT: (strike through those that do not apply)

  FAIL: no retake permitted

  FAIL: retake permitted

  BORDERLINE Pass: retake theory only

  PASS

  PASS WITH MERIT

  PASS WITH DISTINCTION

  Signed: Marcia Overstrand

  And on behalf of: Alther Mella. Thank you, Septimus.
