[It is definitely not child appropriate despite the relative age of the students.]
Ah no, we were all much younger than that, relatively speaking. Drow are fairly long-lived, you see, though we age somewhat faster as children than we do once adolescence hits. I believe you could think of me as a high school student at the time? At the start of lessons, there was a very apparent difference between myself and my fellow students at Melee-Magthere, who began at the traditional age of twenty. By the end of it, when they were thirty and I was forty, it was much less visible, for we all had become adolescents by then.
