Is this just Strixhaven 2?
I knew that they were going to be highlighting Hexhaven but I'm a little disappointed at how much of the story it seems to be occupying. I didn't really need or care to know about their entry and graduation requirements (especially since it's not really actually real?). Hopefully there's more info about the wider Echoverse in the story
It seems like it should be a much larger story/saga but I'm getting a feeling it's a one-off and they'll never come back to it.

I suspect the resolution of this story will see elements of the Jaceverse remaining in the Multiverse in some fashion or another, and if I was a betting woman it'd be some facets of the Hexhaven schools being the main things that survive. If so, could be why there's so much worldbuilding spent on them.
I don't think so. Strixhaven had a lot of preparation cards, most of which I hated. Its still pre-release of course, but I think I've only seen 1 preparation card so far for reality fracture.
Prepare will definitely be a returning mechanic, not a one-off. So I wouldn't expect there to be that much less of them. Ma
