Infos

At Erivelle Academy, perched atop the treacherous Dragon's Tooth Mountains, culinary magic isn't just a skill-it's a weapon. Here, aspiring chefs transform ordinary ingredients into extraordinary culinary spells, vying for the coveted title of Archchef.  Korrin Alder, a wide-eyed farmboy, arrives carrying his family's legacy and an uncanny talent for coaxing hidden flavors from the simplest ingredients. But Erivelle's opulent halls hold secrets darker than any spice.
Beneath the Academy, Korrin discovers the whispered legend of the Seven Forbidden Tables-ancient altars promising unimaginable culinary power.  Seduced by their potential, he crafts levitating soufflés, sauces shimmering with otherworldly light, and pastries blooming with ephemeral flowers.  But his newfound power comes at a terrifying cost: his vitality, his very essence, is slowly consumed.
As culinary duels escalate, Korrin's rivals unleash fiery tornadoes and cages of shimmering frost. Edward Stewart, a reclusive student shrouded in rumors of culinary necromancy, presents dishes that writhe and whisper, hinting at a sinister power.  Emily Joseph, drawn to Korrin's warmth, watches his transformation with growing horror, sensing the corrupting influence of the Forbidden Tables.  Their burgeoning romance is tangled with rivalry and a desperate fear for Korrin's soul.
The final duel for the Archchef title becomes a fight for survival.  Korrin, wielding the amplified power of the Forbidden Tables, creates a dish of unparalleled complexity, a symphony of flavors that overwhelms the senses. But Edward Stewart exposes a horrifying truth: the Archchef is not an honor, but a curse, a living sacrifice to the dark entities bound within the Tables. 
A chaotic battle erupts.  Chili-fueled infernos clash with protective barriers of ice, and an army of animated food constructs, grotesque parodies of past Archchefs, rise from the shadows. Korrin faces a devastating choice: embrace ultimate power or sacrifice everything to shatter the Academy's dark legacy. His decision will determine not only his fate, but the future of Erivelle itself.
