***NO, THIS IS NOT ACCURATE TO HISTORY OR REAL LIFE EVENTS***
Anya Hayhurst, an orphaned young girl, is approached one day by a mysterious man offering her the chance to sell her rights as a living creature in exchange for a new, unknown life to replace her life she views as a mistake.
She agrees.
Never did she believe she would be bought by Theodore Doldrum, who shows her and teacher her all manner of magical things. Who takes her under his wing to help her control her powers, and reveals a new world beyond our own, the man who is the mage, and she his apprentice.
(This is what I call a practise narrative, to test my quality of writing. It does have a strong parallel to the anime/manga of The Ancient Magnus Bride (which I highly recommend) but with my own little twist and minor differences. As stated, I found the material good practice to harness my own writing skill to. It is not vital to have watched the anime to understand this, or vice versa. Hope you enjoy. )
Dorm Guard: the man or woman dedicated to the protection/guardship within a dorm.
*
Landon Becks is a sports scholarship student at White Winter Prep, with only one duty: guard the students in his dorm.
This duty is more easily said than done, because High School is not always kind to disabled students, and none of the students in his dorm fit the criteria of ordinary. With a blind artist, a deaf dancer and her translator, a self-proclaimed Princess of Pastries, a stubborn paraplegic girl, a mute prodigy and son and daughter of a potential mobster, it's not long before he realises it's not just inside the school he must protect his dormmates from.
A story of High School drama, suspense, romance and family.
Am aware the grammar isn't brilliant, would just love an opinion on the story and characters.
Thank you so much for the kind review, and I am so glad you have enjoyed it!
