Quiet, unremarkable, a “gray mouse,” and far from beautiful. I had long since learned not to attract attention, but one day everything changed — and I became known throughout the magical academy. Only that fame turned out to be a disgrace.
Shamed, betrayed by the one I loved, and erased by my own family, I find myself exiled to a bleak place called the “Asylum for the Unwanted.” And I have no idea what trials await me beyond its walls.
But one thing I know for certain: I can no longer remain weak and silent. I must take control of my magic, protect my friends and the new academy, and at the same time find my true, bright self.
Only what am I supposed to do if the one who once mercilessly rejected me appears on my path again?
