Alyndra Lyselle has always felt like she belonged in two worlds-the ordinary one she knows and the elusive, magical one hidden in the depths of her soul. At Astralis Academy, a prestigious school for those born with magic, she's finally given a chance to unlock her true potential. But she soon learns that her connection to magic runs far deeper than anyone imagined.
Alyndra's ability to manipulate sound magic makes her stand out among her peers in Lyra Tower, home to the most gifted students of musical enchantment. Her violin is not just an instrument-it's the key to an ancient power tied to her family's mysterious history, one that has been shrouded in secrecy for generations.
Yet, the more Alyndra delves into her abilities, the more she uncovers dark truths. A hidden order within the academy, known as the Astral Conclave, seeks to control her power for their own sinister purposes. Forbidden spells echo through the walls of the academy, and whispers of long-lost realms resurface, all while Alyndra battles her own doubts about who she truly is.
Things take a dangerous turn when she meets Kaelen Drayven, a brooding student from Draco Keep, whose dark magic is as alluring as it is dangerous. Kaelen seems to know more about Alyndra's lineage than she does, and their connection grows deeper, entwined with forbidden romance and secrets that could destroy them both. Despite warnings from her friends, Alyndra can't deny her feelings for Kaelen, even if it means risking everything.
As an ancient prophecy begins to unravel, Alyndra must make a choice: embrace her power and uncover the hidden truth about her family, or let the darkness consume her world. The fate of the realms, the future of Astralis Academy, and her heart hang in the balance.
Will Alyndra harness the echoes of her past to save the present, or will she be lost in the shadows of her family's legacy?
