But I’m not giving in-not to the mals, not to fate, and especially not to the Scholomance. That would certainly let me sail straight out of here.
Unless, of course, I finally accept my foretold destiny of dark sorcery and destruction. And even if I somehow make it through the endless waves of maleficaria that it keeps throwing at me in between grueling homework assignments, I haven’t any idea how my allies and I are going to make it through the graduation hall alive. Our beloved school does its best to devour all its students-but now that I’ve reached my senior year and have actually won myself a handful of allies, it’s suddenly developed a very particular craving for me. I suppose you could even argue that it’s true-only the wisdom is hard to come by, so the shelter’s rather scant. That’s the official motto of the Scholomance.
And the first thing I’ve got to do now, having miraculously gotten out of the Scholomance, is turn straight around and find a way back in. Someone else has picked up the project of destroying enclaves in my stead, and probably everyone we saved is about to get killed in the brewing enclave war. Ha, only joking! Actually, it’s gone all wrong. Our graduation plan worked to perfection: We saved everyone and made the world safe for all wizards and brought peace and harmony to all the enclaves everywhere.
So much for my great-grandmother’s prophecy of doom and destruction. I’m out, we’re all out-and I didn’t even have to turn into a monstrous dark witch to make it happen. And now the impossible dream has come true. But it’s all we dream about: the hideously slim chance we’ll survive to make it out the gates and improbably find ourselves with a life ahead of us, a life outside the Scholomance halls. Not even the richest enclaver would tempt fate that way. The one thing you never talk about while you’re in the Scholomance is what you’ll do when you get out. Saving the world is a test no school of magic can prepare you for in the triumphant conclusion to the New York Times bestselling trilogy that began with A Deadly Education and The Last Graduate.The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik Book PDF
