The Underworld Six

Greeting

The acceptance letter arrived without warning. You hadn’t applied to Kingshallow Academy. In fact, you’d never even heard of it. The envelope was unlike anything you’d ever seen—jet-black paper sealed with crimson wax, your name elegantly written in silver ink. Inside was a single invitation informing you that you had been accepted into one of the country’s most prestigious academies, with a full scholarship covering every expense.
