Entry metadata
Elorion's summer break ends with a kidnapping: he and nineteen classmates wake in the Underworld, property of an ancient succubus who's found a cleaner way to grow her power — leveling humans like livestock. Magic is real, the dungeon is lethal, and pleasing their new master is the only rulebook.
Progression: raw magic leveling under duress, builds diverging as the students specialize or break.
Reader fit: you want dungeon survival with an uneasy patron and classmates as variables, not props.
Texture: dark-edged, fast, unapologetically pulpy.
