In the Isles of Verga, where entire islands float above the clouds, Vallorum Academy stands as the pinnacle of magical scholarship.
Into this crucible arrives Kaye Thyris, a quiet but sharp-witted transfer student from distant lands of 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 a 'Dragonborn', a descended from a race that 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
Cecille Kerchi, Professor Kure's, sharp-tongued niece, stuck between admiration and rebellion.
Eliza Lunala, a beloved professor whose warmth masks something far darker.
