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.

I will kill you, Lise

The air is thick and cold as I move through the shadowed corridors of Thalira's fortress. Every step feels like it echoes through the walls, even though I tread as lightly as possible, my boots barely brushing the stone floor.

Leora's wards guide me soft, glimmering threads of light only I can see, weaving a path through the maze of halls and chambers. I follow them, my heart pounding in my chest, a drumbeat of fear and urgency.

The fortress is a twisted nightmare of stone and shadow. The walls are lined with dark, jagged carvings that seem to writhe and shift as I pass, like a living, breathing thing. The air is heavy, thick with the stench of old blood and dark magic.

It feels like the walls themselves are closing in, pressing down on me, trying to crush me under their weight. I force myself to focus, to breathe, to push the fear aside. I have to keep moving. I have to find Eileen.
