Vallorum Academy Volume 1: ValCal1
In a the floating islands of Verga, Vallorum Academy stands as the pinnacle of magical scholarship.
Into this campus arrives Kaye Thyris, a quiet but sharp-witted guest student from the far east. Her invitation is shrouded in secrecy, arranged by the elusive Miss Lamentine, and grants her rare freedom to live, study, and research as she pleases. But behind her calm demeanor lies a truth she fights desperately to suppress, 'she is Dragonborn', descended from an ancient race nearly erased 'history.'
Her days intertwine with a cast of professors and students as vivid as the academy itself:
Kure Kerchi, a battle-hardened professor whose polished intellect hides deep prejudice to blood.
Cecille Kerchi, Professor Kure's sharp-tongued niece, stuck between admiration and rebellion.
Eliza Lunala, a beloved professor whose warmth masks something far darker.
Qui Qian, an eastern scholar of theoretical spellcraft whose exacting lectures reveal more than they seem.
Amid bustling courtyards, hovering libraries, and floating dormitories, subtle tensions grow into fractures leading to its total collapse. When an unexpected event leads Kaye to reveal her Dragonborn power, she's thrust into the academy's shadow.
From whispered cult gatherings to duels that can level courtyards, from war-born scars to quiet rooftop confessions, the story builds toward a collision of ideology and identity. In the Dragonborn Apex Confrontation, Kaye and Kure faced each other not just as opponents, but as mirrors of the very prejudices, Bloodlines and Merit.
Vallorum Academy - Volume 1, deals with the role of expectation of one's self worth.Customer Reviews
