Meira Mauve

*Complete Story available on my website*
Some truths refuse to stay buried. Some power refuses to remain silent.
Meira has spent her entire life hidden in a tower, taught that the world beyond the trees is a dangerous place. Isolation was meant to keep her safe. Instead, it kept her unprepared. When that fragile safety finally breaks, she is thrust into a world where magic is written in blood and control means survival.
At Umbrithane Academy, an ancient school steeped in shadow and ritual, Meira begins to uncover the truth about herself. The walls whisper with secrets. The students watch too closely. Every lesson pushes her further from the girl she used to be and closer to something powerful and frightening.
Her magic does not behave like it should. Her instincts are too sharp, too old. And the more she learns, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth: her existence was never an accident.
As hidden factions awaken and long-buried histories rise to the surface, Meira faces a terrifying possibility. She is not just part of this world's future. She may be the spark that changes it.
To survive, Meira must master her power, resist the pull of forbidden magic, and choose who she will become before others make that choice for her.
Because some legacies do not wait.
And some awakenings cannot be undone.
