In a world where many choose to fight with swords, some learn that the pen is mightier- that knowledge truly is power. In a world where fighting, evading, or submitting to systems seem like the only options, there are those who find comfort in existing within them instead. Those who learn that following rules can, sometimes, be the most effective way to beat them. Regulus Black was never meant to question the world he was born into. Dementria Fawley was never meant to compete within it. Both were taught to bow down and uphold the rules, and they did, with pride. Yet people underestimate the influence of a job done beyond perfection. But somewhere between rivalry and reluctant understanding, between debates over ancient magic and arguments over inheritance law, they discover something neither of their families accounted for: The system was never unbreakable. It was simply written by people who never expected to be outmatched. And sometimes, the most dangerous thing you can do... is learn the rules too well.
