Chapter 1, Issue 1: The Strong Attract The Strong

Alex, a member of the Hartvigsen family, powerful in both influence and Magical prowess, attends his first day at the North American SouthEastern (NASE) Academy. His overconfidence is quickly challenged as he meets Elizabeth (Liz) Lee, a humble Mage whose calculated precision might just be a match for his inherited raw power. Their unintended showdown at the placement trials might have attracted the wrong kind of attention, as they are confronted by the Academy Headmaster himself! Being an off-campus student, Alex must attend a weekly muster as part of his coursework. There, he accidentally lands himself in a power struggle with his first instructor. Will they manage to end things peacefully?
