Trials of Magic: Volume 1 (The Hundred Halls)

Aurelia "Aurie" Silverthorne and her younger sister, Pi, are the two strongest mages to apply to the Hundred Halls in decades. But their parents' death when they were kids leaves them without an easy path to join the magical university.

Each Hall—the schools in charge of teaching specific kinds of magic—have expectations for entry. Pi wants to join Coterie of Mages, the most exclusive Hall at the school, but it requires sponsorship by an alumnus. In exchange for a recommendation, Pi is tasked with finding a lost artifact, but uncovering its location requires courting powerful allies and crossing forbidden lines. As the sisters delve deeper into finding the artifact—discovering they're not the only ones after it—they learn their past holds the key to the future and the survival of the Hundred Halls.
