A quiet student, Mia wants nothing more than to blend into the crowd and be forgotten. Her grandmother, who raised her alone, the family her grandmother refuses to talk about, the occult objects that filled her childhood and exerted a strange fascination on her-she refuses to dwell on any of it. But when she discovers a strange tarot deck hidden under the floorboards of the apartment where she grew up, she has no idea how irrevocably her life is about to change.
Indeed, the cards she found are no ordinary ones; they belong to the Fool's Tarot, the most powerful and feared among the members of Jocus, a parallel society governed by occultism and cartomancy. Against her will, Mia now finds herself the sole owner of this highly coveted deck.
Accompanied by Hyacinthe, her childhood friend who swears by science and logic, she inadvertently gets drawn into the conflicts of this strange underground world where tarot reigns supreme and lives are predestined. But the balance of Jocus is disrupted; the magic of the cards is faltering, strange mist creatures roam the sunny streets of the Mediterranean, and a mysterious figure haunts Mia's visions...
With the help of Zaffiro, heir to one of the most influential Houses of Jocus, and Luciana, a cartomancer as talented as she is mysterious, Mia and Hyacinthe embark on a quest to find the source of the magic's disturbances. But in this world, the cards have already been dealt, the dice have already been cast. Can Mia and her companions escape the inevitable path that the Tarot has laid out for them?

The Lost Prophecy | Year One
When a strange man in a brown coat shows up unannounced at Mr. and Mrs. White's house, their life takes an unexpected turn. Never had they imagined that the stories and tales they had heard growing up were real. That they were not just myths and legends, they were as real as their world, the Muggle world. When Phoenix White discovers this, she was beyond thrilled. Phoenix couldn't believe that she was a witch. She couldn't believe that magic actually existed. That witches and wizards lived among them, and that she had magical powers, it seemed too good to be true. All her doubts slowly faded away when she learned that there was an actual school, where people like her would attend and learn to perform magic. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it was called. And she couldn't wait to go there. But, she wasn't aware of what destiny had in store for her. Come along, on her journey, where buried secrets unravel, forgotten tales resurface, and her path crosses with an old ally, leaving her in a sea of questions.

Witchbound 1
In a small, seemingly ordinary town, Selene has always felt like she's just another face in the crowd. Her life revolves around the typical high school experiences-hanging out with friends, navigating the ups and downs of teenage life, and managing the constant buzz of schoolwork and daily routines. To the outside world, it's a life like any other, filled with the usual moments of frustration and joy. Yet, beneath the surface of this mundane existence lies a hidden world, one that Selene never could have imagined. Magic, mystical creatures, and ancient forces have quietly coexisted with her reality, just out of sight. It's a world governed by secrets, where the extraordinary is concealed by the normal. When Selene's life unexpectedly takes a turn, she is drawn to Eldermyst Academy, an ancient, secluded institution that holds the key to her true potential. The academy is a place far removed from her small-town life, a place where the supernatural is a part of everyday existence. Here, Selene begins to uncover her own latent powers, powers that have been dormant for years. The stark contrast between her once predictable world and the strange, mystical realm she enters becomes the foundation for her transformation. As she explores secret locations, encounters creatures beyond imagination, and navigates the complexities of magical realms, Selene begins to realize that her journey isn't just about surviving the chaos of two worlds colliding-it's about mastering the forces within herself, understanding the legacy that runs through her veins, and coming to terms with the power she holds. Each challenge she faces, each discovery she makes, takes her further away from the life she knew, and closer to a destiny that was always waiting for her.Kumpleto
