The Burning Fields. The United States of Witches, #2

After a government raid on the East Texas Academy leaves many of our instructors and a fellow student dead, there is no denying that war has arrived at our doorstep. There is also no denying that war will come next. To prepare for the inevitable, me and my classmates from the Academy are tasked to work with witches whose arcana most closesly matches ours. For me, this means helping the nurses and doctors heal the injured in the medical ward. But some wounds run deeper than others. When a rogue witch attacks a church of the Republic in New York City-leaving not only everyone within dead, but the building in flames-President Isiah Buchanan invokes Project Annihilation, which endangers not only every witch in the country, but their families as well. For me, there is no denying what I must do. I must leave the Resistance and save my family, no matter what the cost.
