Full summary:
For over five generations the Goldsteins and the Whitehorns have been the best and most respected families of Gedonelune, providing the kingdom with magic tools of the highest quality. Yet they have always been at odds, competing on the market and – more often than not – in other areas of daily life; a silent, mutual disdain which degenerated into an open family feud fifteen years ago.
Forced by a royal decree to stay out of each other's way, Walter Goldstein and Remus Whitehorn – once friends during their stay at the Magic Academy – have been cunningly sabotaging each other over and over. And in spite of his own order, the King seems content to remain silent even when the whole kingdom knows of the hatred between the two bloodlines.
And just when the Goldsteins were taking over the Academy – with the family's younger sons studying there – Remus' only child, Rosetta, is accepted as a student. Though a talented witch, she finds herself thrust into the real world beyond the borders of her father's estate – a beautiful, exciting, new... and sometimes dangerous world.

Gosh, it's been far too long since I've had any activity here other than replying to the occasional review or PM. I miss all of you darlings so much, but life hasn't been at its kindest recently. As many of your may know, from reading my profile or visiting my Wattpad page, my father is very sick and requires almost round-the-clock care. In turn, that has been and still is a disaster for my inspiration to write, because I'm always so tired. But I REALLY miss everyone here, which is why I've come to a decision.
As I mentioned on Wattpad (and those who found me there know this), this story was initially intended to be Wattpad-exclusive, which meant I wasn't going to upload it here. But I realized that perhaps not all of my readers want to create an account there just to read one story, which is why as of now The Black Unicorn arrives to FanFiction.
One very important thing to know is that you don't need to have played the game in order to enjoy the story, as I will make sure to give all the information needed for you to not feel lost. If you do want to try to game for yourself be warned that the story will contain heavy spoilers for at least one guy's route. But the story I imagined works well as a standalone too, so it's not necessary to have played the game before reading it.
Just a quick mention, for the people who have not played the game but still wish to enjoy the story for what it is. I'll be updating my website (which you can find on my profile) with pictures of the game characters that show up in the story starting from this chapter. I will mention the character(s)'s name(s) and a few bits of info about them – for those who don't want to waste time looking up the game's wiki.
For those who HAVE played the game: because there's just too many boys, I will be leaving out some of them. They may be mentioned or make episodic appearances, but they won't be directly involved in the main plot. I think having a few guys in the main story along with several OCs is enough, so I apologize wholeheartedly to any fangirls who were hoping to see a lot of the others.
On that note, I leave you darlings to enjoy the first chapter and I sincerely hope you'll have fun with this story even if you're not here for the hot guys but just for my silly writing :P
