Elloren physically resembles her iconic Black Witch grandmother but lacks her powerful magic. At elite Verpax University, Elloren encounters unsolicited trials as well as other races her kind historically distrusts. Gradually illustrating overt and institutional bigotry, readers dive deep into the fantasyland's history and social politics as the novel chronicles Elloren's progression from a position of prejudice to one of more openness.
