student lounge ;; the place where all students are allowed to hang out, do their homework, or just relax is found on the second floor.there's some computers here, and generally the palce where most students spend their afternoons.
elective classrooms ;; always being expanded on, the elective classrooms are about the largest selection of the whole school. Soulmate Academy has everything from foreign languages to painting and hunting game or karate. every student is allowed three electives.
greenhouse ;; with normal and magical plants alike, the greenhouse is just under the courtyard and has the perfect atmosphere for any plant, literally. it is much larger on the inside than it is on the outside, so every student can have their own little plot if they want one.
magic classrooms ;; this is the place where our young mages learn all about the magic that runs through their blood. it ins't uncommon for explosions to happen or kids to accidentally turn themselves into objects.
courtyard ;; just abvoe the greenhouse, the courtyard is a huge rectangle of green with benches, a small garden in the corner, and a basketball court on one side. it's only closed off during winter, when snow covers the school and makes it dangerous to be outside.
twin towers ;; long abandoned, the twin towers used to be guard tours form before the castle was sued as a school. now, there are claims they are haunted, but it's still a favorite spot to get away from the world.
abandoned corridor ;; like the twin towers, the place is considered haunted. however, unlike the twin towers, going here is strictly forbidden. any students found here will have detention for a year, if not longer, and they might even be stripped of some privileges. needless to say, it is very dangerous.

the underground ;;
old classrooms ;; old and abandoned, the classrooms in the basement of the castle haven't been used in over a hundred years. it isn't advised for students to go down here, but sometimes detentions are held here to give students the creeps.
dungeons ;; many a mage has gotten lost down here, never to be seen again. some of the cells still have skeletons in them, and the entire place is booby-trapped. because of the soundproof walls, no one can here you scream if you get stuck.

the kitchen ;; this is where the cooking staff and fairies prepare the students' meals. of course, the students themselves aren't supposed to go down here, but there aren't any strict consequences if you do sneak some food. however unlike Harry Potter, the fairies and staff aren't nearly as willing to give you a snack or two if you do come down here.

the castle grounds ;;
bogwarth ;; the little town that sits next to the castle has a tavern, an inn, three stores (one for clothes, one general store, and one for toys and tricks), and a cemetery. no humans live here, only mages, and the students and staff usually come here on their weekends.
weadowswill woods ;; (1 sub-board) the peaceful forest surrounds the town and the castle, spreading out for miles and miles beyond eyesight. no one knows where it leads, and no accurate maps have been made through it. the nature spirits that live here have made sure that no path stays the same for long, and it is easy to get lost.
mirror's tear lake ;; drinking from it on easter sunday at midnight is said to give you a glimpse of your soulmate. of course, why else would you be at soulmate academy? this is a popular hangout during the hot summer because it's the closest thing to a pool in the area.
the old mines ;; long ago, the area used to be chock-full of gold and silver and other prescious metals. although the professionals have given up, you might still find some stuff in the old mines. be careful though: they aren't very stable, and you don't know what kind of gases -- or creatures -- you'll find down there.
