Power Corrupting — Part I: The Fall by TurtleTotem
Fandoms: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018), Scholomance - Naomi Novik
14 May 2025
Tags
Summary
The Scholomance was designed to be a safe haven and school for the magic-gifted children of the world. In practice, it's more like a 4-year prison sentence with a survival rate of 25%. A rate tilted distinctly in favor of enclave kids like Glimmer, Frosta and Mermista, and against "indie" kids from outside the enclaves.
That's never mattered to indie losers Catra and Adora; they have each other's backs, and that's all they've ever needed. Until Adora saves a bunch of enclave kids, just like Shadow Weaver always told her not to, and suddenly she’s adopted into an enclave. Leaving Catra behind.
Well, Catra doesn't need an enclave, and she doesn't need Adora. But the things she'll have to do to survive with no allies and no friends are things most people couldn't live with. Things Adora might not be able to live with letting her do...

Summary
Sir Gideon Nav is the youngest knight in the Ninth Kingdom of the Empire. Princess Harrowhark is the heir to the throne, and a talented mage. Childhood friends turned rivals and enemies, they've both left scars on each other.
When Lady Dulcinea of the Seventh shows up at their gates with plague symptoms, Gideon is immediately smitten. Over Harrow's protests, Gideon volunteers to care for her. But Dulcinea is not what she seems, and everything goes horribly wrong.
Now Gideon and Harrow are on the run, in disguise as a married peasant couple, trying to get to Harrow's allies in the Sixth Kingdom—with magic and monsters in hot pursuit.
