Firecracker

I survived a deadly ritual... now I have to make it through the academy... 98% of fire magi who attempt the agonizing forbidden ritual known as The Burning don't survive. Those who do... level up in ways undreamt of by the Unburned. I survived. Now I've got other problems. Headmaster Chaplin charges me with tutoring struggling student April, but when bullies target April, I feel my control slipping. It doesn't help that the worst of them is my crush's evil twin, who--for reasons no one can explain--I share a powerful mage-bond with. It all might be enough to push me into darkness. Will I emerge a hero or a fiend?
