Description

---

Simran Singh is just an ordinary boy living with his grandfather in his bustling town in India - until, that is, he receives a mysterious letter accepting him into a prestigious "Naam Academy" in the deep of the Himalayan mountains.

Arriving at the Academy, he realizes that this is no ordinary school. Strange and mystical miracles are a common occurrence at this place, and everyone here seems to have magical powers known as Shaktis - everyone, that is, except for him

Determined to find his powers, Simran Singh begins to delve into the secrets of Naam. But while he is searching for his Shaktis, a dark force is rising, brewing in the underground of the school.

And when Simran Singh comes across an ancient Prophecy that spells doom for the Academy, he knows he needs to act fast - he must conjure up his inner strength in order to solve the mystery of the Prophecy and save his beloved school.

But can he do it before it's too late?
