Lights of Aurelith (The Elandor Series #1)

On the continent of Elandor, everyone is divided by kingdom. Every kingdom has its own rules, its own magic, and its own people. Yet once children reach age eighteen, they are all summoned into one Academy.

There, enemies are placed in neighboring dorms and old grudges are carried into the common area. The Academy was never built on trust - it was built on fear. Fear that without it, the kingdoms would forget the fragile threads that keep war at bay.

We're not supposed to trust each other, let alone care for one another. But tell me how I'm supposed to ignore the one person I can't stop looking at?

To walk the Academy's corridors is to carry the weight of every border, every scar, every whispered hatred. No one arrives without suspicion. No one leaves unchanged.

I would also like to add that I got a lot of inspiration from Fourth Wing, ACOTAR, and Tangled :)
