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’ve been doing some research

The weight of everything that had happened lately pressed down on me like an unbearable burden, but I had no choice but to carry it. I leaned against the cool stone wall of the corridor, the chill seeping through my uniform and into my bones.

My thoughts were a whirlpool of worry and dread, circling around Thalira's ominous threat and the looming duel that Eileen was now faced with.

I clenched my fists, feeling the tension ripple through me. I hated feeling helpless, but even more, I hated seeing Eileen caught in the crossfire of these political games.

The air in the university had taken on a heavier, more oppressive quality since Thalira's confrontation. Students moved through the halls with an undercurrent of unease, their conversations hushed, their eyes glancing around as if expecting something to happen.

I couldn't shake the feeling that we were being watched, judged, and measured against some invisible standard that neither of us had agreed to.
