--- In a medieval world where magic is both coveted and feared, power comes with a cost. Centuries ago, a witch made a pact with a devil, trading her soul’s peace for untold magical abilities—and an unquenchable lust that haunts every mage in her lineage. Known as “soul-lust,” this curse compels each mage to crave sex, growing stronger and more powerful with each encounter. Over generations, the origin of magic was lost, but the curse of lust remains. Six young mages—Liana, Caelum, Elara, Rune, Mira, and Finnian—enter an elite academy, each hoping to become the most powerful mage of their time. But as they navigate rivalries, forbidden spells, and dark secrets within the academy, they’re forced to confront the soul-lust that stirs within them. Desire and ambition intertwine, driving each character to seek strength at the risk of losing themselves to the curse’s insatiable hunger. Bound by destiny and cursed by lust, these six must decide whether to embrace their powers fully, risking their souls, or find a way to break free from the darkness that threatens to consume them all. Their journey to the top will reveal buried truths about the origins of magic, forcing them to choose between power, loyalty, and the freedom of their own wills. ---
