The Altum, the eldest and most powerful Mage's Tower in the world, has seen its fair share of trouble and always come out on top. This time, however, the world's magical energies themselves might be conspiring to tear it apart as the Node, the magi's source of power, spins out of control. (© 2014 Kate Lawrence, obviously.

Elizabeth-Rose lives in a mending society, all mothers, fathers and their children were put in the convergence zone where they live in complete limbo. 200 teenagers are taking a test, making history, to choose a faction and start a new life after the trauma of the war. Elizabeth learns about how different the world is and the dark side of the new Chicago. This is what happened before Divergent. *NOTE* all ideas of setting and overall plot ideas are owned by Veronica Roth, I am just writing what I think could have happened before Divergent so I own none of the ideas :) This is also based from Divergent only.
