[WSA 2025 Entry]

Aiden Chase has always lived in the shadow of his family’s legacy. As the eldest son of the renowned Chase family, celebrated for their relentless pursuit and capture of Magi- beings cursed with extraordinary powers- he was raised to uphold their name. But everything changes when Aiden awakens to a power of his own, a fire within that marks him as the very thing his family hunts. When his father hunts him down, Aiden is rescued and taken to Genvah Academy, an illustrious academy for Magi hidden in the outskirts of Soleil. At first, Aiden hopes the academy will offer him solace and a chance to reclaim a semblance of peace. But Genvah Academy nor Soleil is no haven. 

Beneath the city's golden spires lies darkness- secrets, betrayal, and a looming war that threatens to consume everything. As Aiden unravels the truth about his powers and his family’s legacy, he must navigate a world far more dangerous than he ever imagined. 

Peace is fleeting, and survival comes at a cost.

Whispers of Worlds Beyond: A Series

As Aiden, Adrian, and Sevan stepped out of the classroom, they spotted Jarek and Rupert leaning against the wall just outside, clearly waiting for them.

Jarek had his arms crossed, his foot tapping against the stone floor, while Rupert seemed more relaxed, though the amused glint in his eyes suggested he knew something.

The hallway bustled with students heading to their next classes or lingering to chat, but Jarek and Rupert weren't moving.

It was obvious they had something to say.

Adrian raised an eyebrow. "You lot waiting for us, or just admiring the view?"

Jarek rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah. We're waiting. We need to talk."

Aiden exchanged a glance with Sevan before stepping closer. "What's going on?"

Jarek sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "First off, we-uh, well, I guess we- wanted to say something." His tone was hesitant, which was rare for him. "About, you know… the whole Chase thing."
