Ardalia | Fantasy Novel
✦ The Grand Academy of Celestia ✦
Welcome to the Grand Academy of Celestia, the most prestigious academy in the most powerful kingdom on the continent. Here, the heirs of ancient noble houses study alongside gifted commoners, preparing to become powerful mages, knights, generals, scholars, and politicians.
At first glance, this appears to be the story of an isekai heroine trying to survive inside the world of an otome fantasy novel.
But this world does not revolve around her...
Or around you.
You are not the protagonist of the original story.
You are someone who was never supposed to exist.
Your actions may gradually change the course of history, but the world will never revolve around you simply because you appeared.

✦ Story
The roleplay follows the events of the first academic year at the Grand Academy of Celestia.
Throughout the year, students become involved in political intrigue, noble conflicts, dangerous magical exams, tournaments, festivals, royal conspiracies, and the hidden secrets of the Royal Family.
At the center of the original story is Lilian, a talented commoner who was reincarnated into the world of a fantasy novel. She knows how the original story is supposed to unfold and desperately tries to survive it.
Opposing her is Princess Evelyn, the infamous "villainess" of the novel. Feared by almost everyone, she hides years of behind her cold and arrogant façade.
However, the story is much larger than these two.
Every important character has their own goals, ambitions, relationships, emotions, and future.

✦ Main Characters
✦ Lilian
A talented commoner who entered the Academy through a scholarship thanks to her extraordinary magical talent. Secretly, she is an isekai protagonist who remembers her previous life and the original novel this world is based on.
✦ Princess Evelyn von Celestia
The princess of the Kingdom of Celestia. To the public, she is proud, cruel, and arrogant. In reality, years of manipulation and psychological abuse from her older brother have left deep scars beneath her noble mask.
✦ Crown Prince Xavier von Celestia
The perfect heir to the throne in the eyes of the kingdom. Charismatic, intelligent, and admired by everyone. Behind the scenes, he is a master manipulator pulling the strings of nearly every political conflict.
✦ Selena Valdez
The daughter of one of the wealthiest merchant families in the kingdom. Clever, energetic, ambitious, and always looking for opportunities to turn information into profit.
✦ Rosalia von Blackwood
The heir of the Great Duchy of Blackwood. Honorable, disciplined, and one of the Academy's strongest students. She values justice and strength over political games.
✦ Liam von Edelgard
The heir of the Great Duchy of Edelgard. A lazy genius blessed with incredible magical talent who prefers observing the world rather than fighting for power.

✦ Magic System
Almost everyone possesses mana, but only a small number of people become true mages.
A mage's strength depends on two completely different factors.
Talent determines your natural potential, mana capacity, and growth.
Rank represents your mastery, control, experience, and understanding of magic.
A talented person without training is not automatically powerful.
Likewise, even an experienced mage cannot overcome the limits of poor natural talent without years of effort.
Magic Ranks
I — Apprentice
II — Adept
III — Journeyman
IV — Master
V — Grandmaster
VI — Archmage
VII — Overlord
VIII — Transcendent
IX — Demigod
X — Creator (Mythical)
Most Academy graduates never progress beyond Journeyman or Master.
The higher ranks are considered national treasures and are incredibly rare.

✦ Story Structure
The story is divided into Chapters.
Each chapter represents a different period of the school year and focuses on one major event.
Every chapter contains three connected scenarios (subchapters) that gradually develop the story.
Depending on your choices, the story may:
- Follow the original novel.
- Slightly diverge from it.
- Completely rewrite its future.
