The Academy accepts any girls in their teenage years (Specific ages dependant on race).

The academy was once a quiet finishing school for the nobles of the Western Kingdom until a change of management in 799WK. Since then the curriculum has changed a little and now, needlepoint and music is interspersed with battlefield tactics, siege weapon maintenance and magical training.

Despite the slightly higher mortality rate, the schools popularity has increased with many nobles sending their daughters. A number of guild members are also known to send their children.

Grounds

The school itself is located in Artzdorf a few miles down the coast from Port Artz. and displays a wide variety of architectural styles with regular buildings nestled amongst stepped pyramids, ziggurats, temples and other buildings of a less than conservative design.

List of Classes

NOTE: It's usual for ladies to attend at least 1 year at SAG but in some cases they choose to stay on for advanced tutelage, continued learning, their own enjoyment or to avoid returning to 'normal life'. The SAG doesn't mind as long as the fees are paid and the ladies pass their yearly exams to enable further study. The longest anyone has studied here was 5 years before moving on.
