A lonely girl. A ruthless mage school. A power that could change the fate of kingdoms . The daughter of a powerful nobleman, Alyx Egalion’s world is shattered when she learns she might have magic. Instead of marrying her best friend, the crown prince of Rionn, and ruling his side, she is ordered to travel to the distant DarkSkull Hall to become a mage. Secretive and isolated, DarkSkull is a place where only magical power and lineage matter. Lonely, surrounded by strangers she cannot trust, and desperate to go home, Alyx clings to a single hope... surviving her training so she can return to the life she dreams of. But as Alyx is drawn further into the world of mages, she discovers terrible secrets that challenge everything she's ever believed in. Outside DarkSkull, shadows are stirring. The strongest mages are disappearing without a trace. A long-held truce between powerful kingdoms wavers on a knife’s edge. Alyx’s long-buried magic might be enough to save them all… if she can learn to master it. With this realisation comes a heartbreaking choice… between her home and the life she’s always wanted, and taking her place as a warrior mage to help fight the growing darkness.
