Runemaker Ronan [Epic Fantasy] [Magic Academy]

The Archmage is trying to save the world. Ronan is trying to pass his exams.

Welcome to a world where a fifteen-year-old boy tries to learn magic while the great powers are on the brink of war. Where classes at the Arcane University coexist with skirmishes on the borders, mage hunts, and conspiracies.

On one side, a general-turned-emperor willing to burn the world for his convictions. On the other, an alliance of nations that preaches peace, yet quietly prepares for war. Somewhere in the middle is Ronan, a new student, a nobody in particular, slowly being pulled toward the center of it all.

He'll befriend an irreverent wind manipulator, witness the horror of blood magic, survive a duel to the death, stumble through an intense romance, and discover the secrets behind the mysterious healing arts.
