Professors Are Useless

Kimberly Magic Academy professors as a rule almost never intervene in problems in the student body, especially within the labyrinth: in the words of Headmistress Esmeralda, "Your life and death are in your own hands." In "Glare", Guy and Pete complain about the teachers refusing to get involved after a garuda got loose during Oliver and Nanao's fight with Richard Andrews the previous night, badly injuring several first- and second-years. Oliver and Chela explain that since nobody actually died, the faculty will just chalk it up to a fight between students that got a little out of hand. Similarly, in "Possibility", Katie and Chela separately try to get Luther Garland and Theodore McFarlane to intervene after Ophelia Salvadori kidnapped seventeen male first-years for her experiments. Luther Garland explains that it's against the school rules for the faculty to get involved in labyrinth incidents until eight days have passed, at which point it's largely assumed any victims will be dead. Meanwhile, Chela's father told her that if she couldn't protect her friends, the school would take them. This leads to the Sword Roses determining to mount their own long-shot rescue attempt.
