Become a top mage at all costs

Eileen Caldwell had always been the epitome of a laid-back individual. From her early years to her teens, her passion for leisure rivaled that of any professional napper. School was merely a necessary inconvenience, and she found herself comfortably situated at the bottom of her class hierarchy, much to the chagrin of her teachers and the bemusement of her peers. However, all of this changed on her 18th birthday signaling her transition into adulthood, a mysterious system was activated, one that would upend her world of sloth and slumber. Gone were the days of lounging around without consequence; instead, Eileen found herself thrust into a destiny she could scarcely have imagined. This newly activated system, with its stern mandate against idleness, revealed to Eileen her true potential: she was destined to become one of the most formidable mages the world had ever seen. No longer could she while away the hours in blissful ignorance; instead, she was called upon to harness her latent magical abilities and rise to the challenge that lay before her.

As we trudged back to the dorms, I couldn't shake the overwhelming feeling of exhaustion. All I wanted was to collapse on my bed and be alone with my thoughts. Lise and Thalira, however, had other plans.

"We should go to your room, Eileen," Thalira said cheerfully, nudging Lise. "It's been a long day and we need to debrief."

"I don't think that's necessary," I replied, trying to mask my weariness with a polite smile. "I just want to get some rest."

"Rest?" Lise scoffed, her eyes flashing. "After what happened today? We need to talk strategy for the next part of the tournament."

"I can do that tomorrow," I insisted, my voice firmer. "Right now, I just need some time alone."

"Nonsense," Thalira chimed in, a playful grin spreading across her face. "We're not letting you out of our sight after what happened. Besides, we need to stick together."
