Description:

Mirian Castrella only wanted to survive her final year at Torrviol Academy. An enchantments exam. An artifice presentation. Enough silver to keep her family’s crumbling house from falling apart. That was the plan. Graduate, become an artificer, send money home. Simple. Achievable. Then the sky breaks. A hole appears above her bed, clean and impossible, as if reality itself has been pierced. That same day, war erupts. The Akana Praediar army turns on her homeland without warning, and the world she knows begins to unravel. And when Mirian dies, she wakes up again. Back in her dorm room. Back before the invasion. Back to the sound of rain and the taste of grief she cannot explain. Caught in a time loop and haunted by fragmented dreams of ancient gods, Mirian realizes that surviving is no longer enough. Each reset gives her another chance to prepare, to study deeper magic, to test dangerous theories, to descend into the buried layers beneath Torrviol and the secrets older than the Academy itself. But the loop does not protect her from pain, from loss, or from the consequences of her choices. As magitech reshapes the world and hidden factions move in the shadows, Mirian must grow from an overworked student into something far more dangerous. The Labyrinth beneath the city calls. Forgotten ruins stir. Enemies watch from rooftops in the rain. The apocalypse is coming. She has already lived through it. To stop it, she will have to master magic not as a student, but as a force of nature. And if she fails, the loop will begin again, carrying with it the weight of every world she could not save.
