Arenya Azural, a dragon-blooded farmer from a small town in the middle of nowhere, always dreamed of being a great hero, battling demons and monsters as a force of magic and power. Now her dream has a chance to become reality - she's a new student at Ba'al Cedric's Academy of Adventurers, a university for warriors and heroes to learn to battle against the surprisingly amicable demon armies of the neighboring country in an endless war nobody really remembers the point of by now. She's also studying to become a BladeMage - a challenging route that few have succeeded in. Arenya has a long road ahead of her, with rival students, problems with demons, and a host of challenging courses she must pass in order to keep her scholarship. Will she make it to her dreams and beyond, or be forced to return home, tail (literally) between her legs to a life of farming and dreaming of adventure?

BladeMage is, well... Basically a collection of rambling writings. I had plans for it that went out the window in favor of focusing on my other pursuits, and so this is basically just me writing once in a blue moon, whatever I feel like. Expect little consistency, but perhaps some fun characters. This writing is more for me than for any expectation of success, as it were.
