Art School Wizards: & The Gallery of Shadows
At the Academy of Arcanic Arts, masterpieces breathe life, and magic is woven into every brushstroke. But a chilling silence is spreading, consuming art and artists alike.
When James Bluewater, whose unique wand-brush hums with an ancestral power, is branded by a malevolent ink creature, he is pulled into a terrifying quest. Paintings are vanishing from the hallowed Gallery of Shadows, their creators disappearing with them, leaving behind only desperate whispers.
Alongside his fiercely talented friends-Maevry, Rae, Malachi, and Claire-James must decipher cryptic clues from trapped artists, brave mind-bending illusions, and confront manifestations of their own deepest fears. Each discovery draws them deeper into the Academy's hidden heart.
Their perilous journey unveils a centuries-old conspiracy: the Gallery's very foundations conceal the Shadowfold, a parasitic entity born from a corrupted ritual, feeding on forgotten truths and consumed souls. At its core lies the profound betrayal of the First Curator, who twisted a Master Architect's noble sacrifice into a living prison.
Armed with powerful artifacts like the Artist's Eye and bound by the sacred Oath of the Artist's Code, these young spell-artists must not only rescue the "Bound" and "Unfinished" masters but also expose the lies that permeate their beloved Academy.
Can they break the Curator's insidious "Frame" of warped perception and reclaim what was lost? Or will the Shadowfold's insatiable hunger unmake reality itself, turning all creation into a tapestry of eternal silence?
The fight for remembrance has begun.
