The Queen has decided to hold a competition...One that takes lives and gives. One that spills blood and cleans it.

All guards of the castle have gone to the city to find a champion but only fifty enter the selection process. Twenty-five Alchemists and twenty-five Destroyers.  No one knows what the competition is for or how it will be executed save for the Cruel Queen. The Competition of Death is what it is called and it's completely true. Twenty-five will die, but only one will prevail. For the better or worse.

Not expecting a Rare, a person with the ability to control a mixture of Destruction and Alchemy, let alone two, The Cruel Queen is taken aback. But what shocks her most is the fact that both Rares are prisoners with the title of "The Worst Criminals in Carrallizian History." Better known as the Ergastula. 

The biggest disgrace of Carralliz.  

Without any memory of their lives, the Rares fight in the competition to earn their freedom, but they prove to be a royal pain in the neck for the Cruel Queen. An even bigger one than the threats of war coming from the East and the West. 

Will the queen be able to keep the competition going smoothly? Or will she have to address the threats of war?

39 parts Ongoing Mature
The Academy of Manipulation and Control was built on that exact premise: to manipulate and control its students and their gifts. 150 years ago, the Founders created the school to control its students, and their gifts to manipulate the elements, and force them unlearn their "magic" and blend in with society. Today the Academy has reclaimed itself by changing their name, and their reason for existence. The Academy of Manipulation and Control became "Acamancy," a safe haven for young adults to learn about, improve upon, and gain control over their gifts. They learn how to not only how to succeed in school, but how to live amongst society with their gifts, and most importantly how to use those gifts to change their lives, and their entire world, for the better. The Echoes of Rivalry and Ruin follows 19-year-old Emalyne Thatcher on her journey through her first year at the Academy. Striving to keep up her reputation as top of the class, Emalyne learns about not only Acamancy, but learns about herself. Watch as her trials and triumphs in class, romance, friendship, and the battle grounds unfold. Will "The Flamers" ruin her chances at a successful Acamancy education? Will she make it at Acamancy or be forced to live her worst nightmare, a "Normie" life... Will Emmie find love or let her anxious mind get in the way, as always. Will Emmie choose her love life over her friendships? Or will she abandon both in order to keep her top spot in the classroom...
