One duel saves a mother; a necklace summons a witch's shadow.
Dorothea's mixed blood marks her as an outcast the moment she passes the Academy entrance exam, turning classrooms into a gauntlet of scorn. The family necklace resting against her chest acts like a beacon, pulling the dark witch Morgan's attention toward a power that has slept in her lineage for generations. While she struggles to control the force rising in her veins, every hostile glance and whispered threat reminds her that survival means mastering magic the world fears.
