✨"They said only one moon chose a soul. So what does it mean when all five answer?"✨
Rain slicked the dark stone path to Astraeon Academy,the world's most prestigious school for Moonborn--the magically marked.
High above, five moons shimmered in alignment,each in its unique phase, casting strange-colored lights over the tall gate.
(At night)
(Day view)
Seventeen years old Aysel Caelum stood in front of them, soaked and trembling.
Aysel Caelum
"....."
She wasn't supposed to be here.
She wasn't even supposed to have a Moon Mark.
And yet,last night --during the Fivefold Eclipse--five blazing marks had burned themselves into her skin, one by one.
She still couldn't breathe right. Her bones ached. Her back itched where the Full Moon glowed like wildfire on her shoulder . Her chest pulsed with the watery light of the Waning Crescent.
Her collarbone shimmered silver,and her hands sparked with magic she couldn't understand.
She bore them all.
Full moon. Waning Crescent. Waxing Crescent. First Quarter. New Moon.
No one had ever had more than one.
Now she was being taken into the academy under "Emergency Observation".
But as she stepped through the gates, escorted by two masked faculty members in robes,Aysel could feel it--the eyes. The whispers. The powers.
