The oldest merfolk say the sea was once the sky. Before the first dawn, there was no horizon to divide heaven from the deep. Above and below were one endless sea of light, where fireflies drifted between constellations and the first odes of creation sang through the silence, but when morning came for the first time, the heavens rose, holding the sun and moon into the heights, and the world was forever parted into sky and sea. Yet the stars could not bear such a farewell, so they left behind their reflections beneath the waves. Ever since, every star has had two homes: one above the world and one below it, where they shimmer in the dark waters of the Sea of Stars. Sailors believe they are only reflections, but merfolk know they are memories of an older world, still calling to those willing to listen. It is said that, on the rarest of nights, a child is born between those reflections, bearing both the longing of the heavens and the sorrow of the sea. Such souls belong to neither world. The sea claims they dream too much of the sky, the sky says their hearts beat with the tides, and so they spend their lives searching for a place that feels like home, never knowing whether they are chasing a distant shore... or a forgotten star.

𝙍𝙞𝙨𝙚...𝙤𝙧 𝙗𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧. - Oasis Awards 3rd place - Upon nearing adulthood, citizens of Aegia face the choice to risk it all. For some, it's all about the glory, and living up to their family name. For others, it's an offer of security, of knowing where their next meal is coming from. And so they make the choice to enroll in one of several Academies, where they are taught the ancient texts, the history of the realm, and the sacred runes handed down by the gods themselves. At the end of their time there, they face a series of tests to be sorted into two castes: 𝗔𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀, the elite rulers, advance to the top positions in their field, deciding what is built, what is destroyed, where taxes go...and who lives and dies. And 𝘀𝘆𝗹𝗿𝗮, the servants bound by magic to their Aelaris. Seen as little more than an appendage and status symbol, they spend their days following their Aelaris and living for their demands, completely devoted and content in their role. The bond is considered sacred. It prevents the Aelaris from ever harming their sylra while ensuring the sylra is happy to serve. It is the Rite of Ascension that determines who belongs where, a process that measures worth and potential, through the power of the gods. Rian Argon-son has always believed he was destined to join the ranks of the Aelaris, working tirelessly to prove himself worthy. Meanwhile his nemesis Ileana, born into wealth and privilege, has always seen herself as a true heir to power. Their rivalry has simmered in all their time at the Academy, and now the final testing is upon them. They may be both top of their class, but ultimately the Rite of Ascension will decide everything. Both have prepared. Neither are ready. Cover by @Merlyn_Fereira
