Gray Lexly, the son of a humble candlemaker, dreams of leaving behind a life of old-world craft to study at the prestigious Astra Academy—a school reserved for arcanists who can wield powerful magic. But Gray carries a terrifying secret. Every night he is haunted by monstrous nightmares, and when those creatures wound him in his sleep, he wakes with the same injuries in the real world.
One night, when the nightmares nearly claim his life, Gray is rescued by the mysterious and compassionate Professor Helmith, a powerful arcanist who seems to understand the danger surrounding him. She offers him protection and an extraordinary opportunity: a place at Astra Academy.
But first, Gray must take the most important step toward becoming an arcanist—bonding with a magical creature. The choice will shape his powers and his future. Will he form a bond with a unicorn, a pegasus, or perhaps a cunning kitsune?
When dark forces begin to close in on Professor Helmith, Gray realizes that simply attending the academy will not be enough. To protect the one person who saved him, and to survive the nightmares that threaten to consume him, he must grow stronger in magic before time runs out.
