In an age before Rin Grey, when the world trembled beneath the turning gears of Chronos, hope was but a fading ember.
Silas Ward, a diligent yet seemingly powerless student of Nihility Academy, spent his days chasing a light he could not grasp. While others shaped flame and storm from their essence, Silas's hands held only a fragile spark that flickered and died. Mocked by fate and overshadowed by prodigies, he questioned whether he was ever meant to wield power at all.
But destiny does not sleep.
As the shadows of the Entities crept closer and whispers of Chronos, the Entity of Time, echoed across the world, Silas's quiet perseverance became the very key to survival. For within his faint and forgotten spark lay a power older than the stars, a legacy born from something or rather someone ancient...
When darkness fell, the boy who once struggled to find his light would rise to become it.
And his path would lead him toward an inevitable truth: to face Chronos... he must become The Last Light.

Everyone knows the academy is no ordinary school-it's a proving ground for the strongest and most dangerous supernatural beings. But when Kaia Winters receives an invitation to attend, she discovers she isn't there to learn. She's there to survive.

Her abilities are rare and uncontrollable, and if the academy's leaders have their way, she'll either be the weapon that wins them the war-or the casualty that proves their theory wrong. Assigned to four powerful partners, each with their own dark agendas, Kaia must learn to navigate the treacherous halls of the academy. There's Alec, the brooding demon with a sinful grin and a taste for chaos. Gabriel, the angel whose icy exterior hides a burning rage. Ryder, the shapeshifter with a devil-may-care attitude and a knack for secrets. And Silas, the necromancer who sees more in the shadows than he lets on. But as Kaia unravels the mysteries of the academy, she discovers that her partners aren't just allies-they may be the only ones who can keep her alive. And as tensions rise, so does the temptation. Trusting them could cost her everything, but falling for them? That could be the deadliest sin of all.Complete

In this story, each person has a song, and only they know it. Except their soulmate, who is the only person in the world to know the persons song. It might be a bit weird 'cause Peyton is the only character who's started as an angeree child lol This might have a sequel, idk I haven't decided.

But on his thirteenth birthday, everything changes. He calls back the dead. The world begins to tremble. The Heart of Tharos has been reborn-in him.
