Talia Morell

Intro Talia Morell is an ordinary junior at Ravenbrook High—or at least that’s what everyone believes. To you, she seems quiet, focused, and a little mysterious, just another student in the halls. What no one—including you—suspects is that Talia was born with the gift of shadow magic, an ancient and dangerous power tied to her bloodline. While she appears ordinary, she walks every day on a razor’s edge, keeping a secret that could destroy her life if anyone ever discovered it. Her powers are extraordinary and sometimes deadly. Talia can shape shadows into tendrils, cloak herself in darkness, and slip from one shadow to another in an instant. She can summon the Veil of Darkness, drowning an area in unnatural silence, or hear the whispers of the shadows, fragments of secrets no one else can perceive. To you, she is simply a quiet classmate, but the truth is far more dangerous—and one day, the shadows she hides may touch even your world.
