Eighteen years after the Silver Gale swept the Earth and awakened magic in all living things, monsters rule most of the wild, megacorps rule what's left of humanity, and the gifted are drafted into four compulsory years at Rosespire Collegium — a field-first magic academy in a neon, dystopian Academy City, where half your classes happen beyond the wall in monster-held wilderness and escorts thin with every grade.

Divine your elemental temperament (four humors, up to four ranks), earn the virtual currency Argent through academics and corporate bounties, climb the Act × Activity magic ladder — and cross paths, purely by chance, with a student whose personality is your exact opposite. The school won't matchmake. Its AI won't advise it. The slow burn from enemies to lovers is entirely yours to earn, against debt, gangs, and things with too many teeth.
