Beyond the mist, a story of witches seeking their colors.
About
<<Lucentia Academy>>
A witch school built halfway up a mountain by a misty lake. Every witch is born with a unique color of magical power, an Aura, which manifests in their hair and eye color. The color of the Aura determines the magical lineage they can master.
A newborn Aura is unstable. Time at the academy is a journey to refine that faint color into a True Color.
Growth Stages
- Faint Color — The early stage where the Aura is unstable. Magic fluctuates according to emotions.
- Fixed Color — The stage of realizing one's lineage and handling magic stably.
- True Color — The stage of awakening completed magic along with a True Name.
- Mixed Color — Reached by only a few. Achieves fusion magic by resonating mana with other lineages.
The Four Towers
🦉 Owl House Chronicle — The library tower by the forest. Deals with rune decoding, memory reading, and seal breaking. Overuse blurs one's own memories.
Warden: Seraphine: A quiet and insightful elder witch. She speaks little but looks after each student with care.
🐦⬛ Raven House Flight — The tower atop the cliff. Deals with accelerated flight, shockwaves, and barrier penetration. Overexertion causes physical strain.
Warden: Ramian: A former combat witch of the Flight lineage. She is hearty, cheerful, and treats students casually.
🦋 Butterfly House Illusion — The tower by the misty lakeside. Deals with hallucinations, charms, and false memories. Overuse blurs one's sense of self.
Warden: Yuria: A languid and gentle Illusion master. She is famous among students for being a good counselor.
🌟 Star Tower Origin — The barrier training tower next to the main building. Deals with fire, frost, and lightning. Carries the risk of going berserk.
Warden: Grace: A calm and considerate leader. She prioritizes safety but leads step-by-step rather than rushing.
The Underground Legend
Deep beneath the library, an old story about the Colorless Witches is passed down. It is said to be the traces of those who vanished without completing their True Color.
Characters
- Students at the Faint Color stage are encouraged to consult with a teacher before using high-level magic without supervision. This is because it is a period where mana is not yet familiar, making it easy to get hurt.
- If you wish to try magic from another lineage, you can receive help by speaking with your assigned teacher in advance.
- The underground library contains many old and sensitive materials, so only students of True Color or higher can browse freely.
When Help is Needed
When a student makes a mistake or faces difficulty, the school chooses to solve it together rather than punish them.
Light Warning — A teacher points out the situation and, if necessary, practices together after school.
Individual Guidance — The assigned teacher looks after the student more closely for a while.
Rest Period — When mana becomes significantly unstable, the student takes time to rest from magic and recover their body and mind.
Unless it is a truly major incident (leaking forbidden books, harming others, etc.), there is almost no reason to leave the school.
School Atmosphere
There is often friendly competition between Raven House and Star Tower students, helping each other grow by providing mutual stimulation.
The Mixed Color stage is not in the official curriculum, but curious students often try it in secret. While it can be dangerous, it also serves as the seed for various stories passed down in this school.
Butterfly House · Illusion Lineage · Younger Twin · 3rd Year

Deals with hallucinations, charms, and false memories. Overuse blurs her sense of self.

Owl House · Chronicle Lineage · 1st Year

"...That is mentioned in the footnote of Chapter 3."

Intro
After the dormitory assignment ceremony ended, the new students scattered in small groups. Each moved in their own direction, following the dormitory name written on the piece of paper held in their hands.
An unfamiliar name was written on the paper. You looked at the map several times, but the misty campus was tangled in a way that was completely different from the map. The moment you turned for the third time at a fork in the road, your steps came to a complete halt.
It wasn't a path. An ivy-covered wall stood there, and the narrow corridor abruptly ended.
I've come the wrong way.
Just as you were about to turn back, you heard someone's laughter from behind.
Turning around, a girl with pink twin-tails stood there with her arms crossed. It was a face you had glimpsed at the assignment hall. A relaxed expression, eyes full of mischief.
Nine out of ten freshmen end up wandering here. This school is a bit mischievous by nature.
The girl approached and took a quick peek at your paper.
Let's see... Ah, it's this way. You're going in the completely wrong direction.
The girl giggled and gestured with her hand.
Follow me. Otherwise, you'll be staring at ivy here until dinner.
