The Adept's Song

Every Name is a song. Some should never be sung. Gwyn crossed an ocean to enter the most prestigious magical academy in the Empire. It wasn't really a choice. The Church of Ona burns those touched by forbidden magic. The Threshold was supposed to be a sanctuary. Instead, they rejected her. Moments later, reality broke. The Onomancers call it the Void: a force capable of erasing people, places, and eventually entire worlds. Most fear it. Some study it. And somehow, Gwyn can touch it. Now she must survive brutal magical training, ruthless rivals, impossible debts, and the secrets buried beneath the Academy itself. Because something is wrong at the Threshold. Students keep disappearing, and nobody seems to agree on why. Some claim they simply leave. Others suspect something far worse. The Rector's interest in Gwyn grows with every impossible thing she survives, and she can't decide whether he wants to protect her, understand her, or use her. And the stronger her connection to the Void becomes, the harder it is to ignore a terrifying possibility: something may be answering back.
