I'm Daryn Coldwater. My normal life is boring and complicated. A few weeks ago, I got kidnapped and was taken to a magical academy. At first, I thought my dreams had come true, but it just turns out that I'm living a nightmare. Now, I'm stuck here, trying to learn magic while figuring out how to cope in the academy.

[UNDER EDITING] The princess. A role more symbolic than powerful, a position more caging than liberating. A life more dreadful than joyous. It's a wonder to the people why Princess Lantana ran from her position. Yet, free in the forest, Lantana never felt more jubilant. The General. A man of stoic brutality, his name laced with fear tied to the battlefield. A man who's surprisingly level-headed for a man of war, yet wholly devoted to the crown. When the General returns Lantana to her gilded lifestyle, she's swept into a world of ballgowns and delicacies, yet tension is simmering beneath the golden folds of her dresses or the foundations of the castle. Tension pulled from the deepest roots of the world, pressure waiting to explode. For the King made a dreadful bargain, one with divine consequences. *** TW: Descriptions of violence, war, death, mild swearing. As stated, I'm undergoing editing and am too lazy to change all the banners in the chapters one by one, so I'll be doing it gradually. Chapters edited: 7/40 Huge thanks to @redflowers- for the beautiful banner and @wandology for the cover and banners! Featured (x1) @fantasy
