Background
One of the countries named Démocratie was once the vassal state of Feudalismus. Yet in 19 century, nobles of Feudalismus were indulged in luxurious life, thus raised taxes unreasonably high. This was the last straw for the people of Démocratie, they revolt against the useless king and the army of Feudalismus which claimed to protect the king. (Using the French revolution as the blueprint) As the battle in Marseille has marked the success of the revolution and Démocratie has changed a trias politica country, while Feudalismus remained as a monarchy.
As Feudalismus Army mainly plays slow songs as a way of torture, Council of Démocratie has agreed to ban any performance of any slow tune, or they shall receive a heavy penalty or even death sentence. At the early 1900s, modernize of military has brought the tension of two countries high, fear of another war coming, Démocratie military decided to rebuilt the Aileen College and train students to become new musicians, which later Sofie and Chen Hsing-Hui will study in.
The first book will first describe Sofie's school life, including being discriminated as she couldn't pass the standard tempo thus failed the first test, later professor Alberto has managed to help her and teach her to perform faster songs. She also met new friends after Chen Hsing-Hui forced her to perform in front of her classmates. Between that Sofie dreamed about her mother.
After some time Sofie has dealt with the bullying, she was being kidnapped by a Fedualismus spy, which then she learned the situation in there and their people. The spy released her when he successfully escaped.
After Sofie return, she was praised as a genius as few can survive from that. And thus Sofie became the center of the school. May write sth about joining clubs or any activities.
When Sofie almost finished year 2, the war began and they were forced to go to the trenches. Sofie and Chen Hsing-Hui became nurses. Yet during one assault, enemy forces have broken the defense line.
Place and the war
All story scene will be based on France and Germany, may have slight modify between the names. While the war(the war will begin in the middle of the first book and end at the last book) will be based on WWI, musicians are still considered as experimental soldiers. The war will still be using guns, tanks, trenches as the main weapon. (Musicians on war have different branches, including healing, stormtrooper, spy etc., but most will be used as entertainment for soldiers.)
