Story / Setting / Purpose:

For centuries, there has been a veritable cold war between two military academies: Surrindohr Academy of Eridell, and Orburn Academy of Tergeron. Enter three soldiers of Surrindohr -- Hikari, Demi, and Ruslan -- who are training to continue the grand purpose of these two academies: to kill Witches. Witches are an unexplained phenomenon: females with the inherent ability to use magic without the study of ancient text, but at a horrible price -- over time, their magic drives them insane, and often into a murderous rampage. Only the soldiers of Surrindohr and Orburn are qualified to hunt Witches and protect the world as a whole, but when the trio encounters a Witch for the first time, everything changes...

 

Experience a story of morality, friendship, and love; life and death; and what it means to think for yourself.
