Synopsis
It started with a whisper from the ancient oak in their grandfather’s yard; a sound that shouldn't exist, calling names that felt like echoes. For cousins Reshaine, Abidale, and Eleanor, life was defined by the mundane rhythms of high school and summer chores. But after that one "unreal" afternoon, the world begins to warp. It starts as a low, pressurized heat beneath the skin; a searing, internal fire that no doctor can explain and no water can douse. As the fever climbs, the trio realizes they are no longer just teenagers. They are vessels for a power that is outgrowing their very souls. Driven by a primal urge they cannot name, the fabric of their reality finally tears. The cousins are pulled from the safety of the farm and marooned in the Kingdom of Eridena, a land where magic is a living, breathing science and the sky is painted in colors they’ve never seen. It is a world of S-Class mages, ancient "Wizard Saints," and a history written in the blood of fallen goddesses. Stranded and desperate, the trio must trade their school uniforms for the aprons of an inn and the blades of an apprentice. Under the watchful eyes of legendary mentors, they must learn to control the unknown burning urge in their veins. But in a kingdom separated by boundary wars and shadowed by "Dark Guilds," three kids with unmeasurable power are more than just newcomers. They are the spark that could light a revolution—or the flame that will burn both worlds to ash.

Chapter 1 - Prolonge

"Where…are we?" the girl asked, holding tight to a girl beside her.

A gust of wind came from the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was dark but not dark enough for them not to see.

The boy plucked up all his courage to start walking, even if every limb of his body were shaking. Their footsteps echoed through the tunnel, making it creepier with every step; the gust of wind sounded like voices calling for help.

The youngest of the three can't help but screech quietly every time the wind comes inside; she tends to hide and hold tighter to the girl beside her.

A small light flickers ahead, and it grows gradually as they come closer to the end. The light brightens as they reach it, making them cover their eyes. They slowly opened their eyes as they adjusted to the light.

"Woah," came from each one of them.

The scenery was beautiful; countless trees covered the bottom of the mountain, and the sea could be seen from their whereabouts. It all feels so magical. From their point of view, they were at the edge of a cliff on top of a mountain; they all looked back to only see the mountainside; the tunnel was gone.

"How did we…" the boy was cut off when a big gust of wind came from the bottom of the cliff.

A long lizard came flying from the bottom of the cliff, its enormous wings flapping aggressively, making whirlpools of dust. Its silver scale bounced off the light of the sun; it was like a group of shooting stars swimming in the sky.

The three tumbled back a few steps behind, their faces tainted with fright but with a hint of amazement.

All they can think about at this time is where the hell did they end up? A minute ago they were happily running on a hill, and then suddenly they ended up in a dark tunnel with a gloomy atmosphere.
