The truth about magic

After a foreign invasion, a continent of seperated kingdoms needs to face a unified empire, and does so trought the founding of the templar guild, an organisation designed to further magical blood. Two generations later our two main characters go trough the newly designed trials made to enhance magical abilities. As our first MC Alex tries to reconnect to his origins from before the attacks our second MC Athena is forced to face her rather unconventional abilities. First Story, update at least once per week, around 3000 words each. Please tell me your opinion, and any suggestions are welcome. It is planned out until chapter 73 so far.
