Welcome to Oracle--a sprawling school of magic overlooked by a crystal mountain, surrounded by fields and forests beneath whipped clouds and endless blue skies. Caprice Bilberry is a witch who suddenly arrives at Oracle's extraordinary campus and is informed that as a student here, her greatest wish will be granted: She will be freed from generational enslavement and have the right to go to school and practice her magic. Why say no and return to life as a slave in a colonial village where using magic is an offense punishable by mutilation and death? But you know what they say: If something is too good to be true...it usually is. Caprice, Nezzle, and Bossa become friends, soon unraveling a terrifying secret: The school is more than what it seems, demanding a price more sinister than its lofty goals reveal or make up for.

When seventeen-year-old Natalie Porter finds a treasure chest belonging to her dead mother hidden away in the attic, she follows the clues inside and discovers her mother's death was never actually confirmed. Ten years ago she simply disappeared, leaving behind a mysterious charm necklace. Longing to learn more about her mother, and finding herself fascinated by the odd charm, Natalie claims the necklace. It quickly becomes apparent she's not the only one interested in her mother's disappearance. When Natalie finds herself pursued she hides, still clutching the charm, and is shocked to find herself transported to a place called Brookland. Brookland, once a lush, green land full of magic, has been drained of life and turned into a blackened wasteland by Queen Casias, a woman obsessed only with her own wealth and power. To Natalie's horror, not only does the queen know she's here, but she's been searching for the necklace for the past ten years. And now she knows who has it. If Natalie doesn't keep the charm out of the queen's grasp, she'll use it to spread her twisted darkness into the human world, destroying everything in her path.

Jiang Cheng, born into a family of loveless marriages, initially believes that he will never repeat his parents' mistakes, but he was foolishly wrong when he married Lan Xichen of the Gusu Lan Sect. With reckless courage, he gambled on one-sided love, which turned out to be a bad bet. He died in Lotus Pier's second fall, leaving his three children all alone with the alpha father. Clearly, after ten years, a sickly young master Murong Cheng summoned him back into the living world-and later, he met the mad prince of Dong Fang Kingdom. A psychotic mad prince who enjoys human eyeballs. Fuck that, he's Jiang Wanyin, Jiang Cheng of Lotus Pier. ==== Author's Note: Hello, everyone. I know it's been a year since this was updated, but I'm not sure if anyone is still waiting for it. Thank you for your support; I'll keep working on it, but the update could take days, months, or years. Life itself has a firm grip on me. Nonetheless, Jiang Cheng will remain my favorite among the others.
