The Institution for the Gifted is a prestigious boarding school, infamous for its peculiar ways of executing their entrance exam. Yet, little is known about the school and as to why only the "finest" students are permitted to attend it. The institution is heavily guarded and every single undercover reporter any news channel has sent has never been heard from again. However, one day, a peculiar girl named Avilyn Clearheart is admitted into the school and as the classes she attends increase, the school becomes all the more mysterious. She wasn't special of any kind and certainly not gifted, but it's when an evil starts crawling out of its cave that Avilyn realizes she fits in after all.
