The Road to Elite

At a magical academy, five factions compete through spellcraft, magical abilities, and summoned creatures. Each faction can send only one student through the rankings, from novice to Elite, the champions tasked with protecting the magical world from dark forces. Secretly, two professors plan to drain the Elite students' magic to corrupt magical creatures and newborns born with innate power. The world includes natural-born talents and students who worked to awaken their inner spark. The five factions are the Ravens, Sirens, Phoenix, Owls, and Lotus. Marie, a beautiful but shy voodoo witch born with extreme magical power, is sorted into every faction but chooses the Raven faction, the one she always wanted. She possesses a secret spell that effortlessly copies the abilities of every faction, and the more others focus their attention on her, the more her dangerous power emerges, making her a uniquely deadly contender.
