The Plot
On the first day of classes at The Academy, Willow and her friends (San Jun, Pedro Maia, Luke Ross, and Seisei) hear news of not just an invasion by a formerly-peaceful tribe, the Blackstones, in their training grounds (Soltiude Forest) but news that new students have been admitted (not from other branches of the academy, even!). When Willow is forced to dorm with one of the new students, her knowledge of how her year of schooling would go changes.
