Philo has always been the worst student in his class at the academy, with powerful magic he can barely control. His lack of ambition and discipline is about to catch up with him as graduation day looms. When he's paired to train together with the aloof star student Atlas, Philo's magic backfires, teleporting them both far from home. Now, their futures depend on them working together to make it back to their school in time. In just a few short days the pair find common ground that their years of classes together never managed to build, and at some points Philo questions if he didn't have the wrong idea of Atlas the whole time - wondering if their struggles to get home might plant the seeds for something bigger. Meanwhile, powers outside the academy are setting plans in motion that may change both of their lives.
