After the incident that left half the academy shaken and the other half silently intrigued, Silvermist was transferred to another chamber—this time, far from the dormitories. The decision wasn't just for her safety.
It was also a silent punishment. Or perhaps, a warning. She now shared living quarters with Adeline and Mila under strict supervision. Though the two were relieved to remain close to her and could still join trainings, they both knew the real reason behind the arrangement: containment.
Ever since East sealed her mana, Silvermist had been excused from physical training, spell trials, and collective enchantment classes. No longer a danger—or an asset—in the eyes of the council, she became a case study instead as per the Lunar King's command.
And with that came her new routine: daily magical diagnostics with East and Cloud, and occasional observation under Theo Glimmerdew, who still hadn't uncovered the full extent of what he called "the anomaly."
