Chosen and Cursed

Some fates are not chosen by the stars but cursed in the womb. Sage and Alaric Reyes are twins who have spent their lives surviving the foster system, counting down the days until they age out, with nothing but each other. No family. No future. Just a plan to make it on their own. Then a tear in reality changes everything. Now they are stranded on Haitham, where the sun itself feeds magic and twins are almost mythical. Forced into the Royal Academy and caught in the crosshairs of a brutal civil war, they carry the raw potential to become the most powerful mages Haitham has ever seen.
