Nesrin refuses to die a nameless soldier. Her father is second-in-command to the Warlord Emperor, and her magical ability is the strongest anyone has seen in years. They say she has been blessed by Death. Her fate has never been hers, always following a rigid path: she will graduate from the top School of Necromancy as their top student and take her father’s place at the Emperor’s side. Then Fynn’s headless body is strung over the Dean’s office, and all the evidence points to her. Who else would want the boy dead but his biggest— and only — rival?Expelled, humiliated, and stripped of her name until she can earn it back, Nesrin, now Ren, finds herself with nothing left but her magic, desperate to find a way out of having to serve at the Outer Gates. Opportunity comes in the form of an anonymous acceptance letter at Undine Academy for the Recently Disposed, with an offer attached: Survive a semester and return to Vivire with your record wiped clean. What could go wrong?characters.nesrin ‘ren’ cordova, 18, she/her | it’s not that ren is mean, it’s just that she’s… not nice. some would call her haughty, but there’s nothing wrong with being confident when you know you’re good. doesn’t know what a grey area is; only extremes.kenji fujioka, 19, he/they | ren’s appointed student mentor. quite possibly the most annoying person on earth. second year at undine because no other academy will take them. how is he still alive? nobody knows. malakai cordova, 18, he/him | ren’s twin brother who may or may not absolutely detest his sister. enjoying the fact that he’s now technically the favorite child a little too much. made a deal with a demon to enhance his lacking necromancy abilities & is perpetually suffering for it.yael orinthus, 21, he/him | fourth year at undine. there’s a rumor going around that he’s a lost prince. the only person in history who chose to come to undine rather than be persuaded or forced into it. extremely talented at absolutely everything, which means ren hates him.Keep readingOh oh! I’m loving this concept and the aesthetic of this wip!! The edit is gorgeous and eye-catching and the synopsis is wonderfully intriguing–I have so much curiosity on what Undine Academy is like! Why would it be difficult to survive a semester? Ooohh~this sounds incredible, the Vibes -- source link
