The Unwanted Fate

There were five kingdoms in Elaria. Five kingdoms with different cultures, different Elaris, and different stories to tell. Some were known for their scholars. Some for their warriors. Others for their powerful bloodlines, ancient magic, or the people who ruled them. And then there was Lenrae Veyne, an ordinary girl from a small town called Avelin. At least, that was how she wanted it to stay. She never dreamed of becoming someone important. She had no interest in titles, nobility, politics, or anything that came with being in the spotlight. She wanted a quiet life, a simple home, and a good cup of coffee—with enough money to live comfortably without having to deal with people who thought too highly of themselves. She wanted nothing complicated. Unfortunately, fate seemed to disagree. Her parents had always believed that Lenrae was meant for something bigger. And so, despite her protests, they enrolled her in the Elarian Academy—the most prestigious academy in Elaria, located in the kingdom of Aurelia. It was supposed to be the beginning of a better future. Instead, it became the beginning of everything she never dreamed of. Because at the Elarian Academy, Lenrae would find herself surrounded by nobles, powerful Elarian, and people whose names could easily make it to the front page of the Daily Herald. And among them was someone she definitely never wanted to meet in her lifetime. Someone whose very existence would turn her simple life upside down. DISCLAIMER: This story is a work of pure fiction.
