Ad Lucem Per Laborem

To the Light Through Work

Marlika, Eirin City, Qranth

Tucked within the heart of Eirin City’s Marlika District, Marlika Preparatory Academy is one of the most prestigious academic institutions in Qranth — known for its cutting-edge architecture, elite student body, and rigorous academic tradition. With a sleek glass-and-steel campus that stands in striking contrast to the historical roots of its founding, Marlika Prep is a place where legacy meets modernity.

The academy was founded in 1913 by Headmaster Emeritus Lior Marlika, a visionary educator and political reformist who believed in cultivating not just intelligence, but influence. His mission was to create a space where the children of Qranth’s most powerful families could become the architects of the nation’s future.

Originally housed in a stately manor on the city’s outskirts, Marlika Prep relocated to its current state-of-the-art campus in 2001, reflecting a shift in both the city’s growth and the academy’s ambition. It now sits nestled between corporate high-rises and luxury apartments, a jewel of learning in the city’s financial and political heart.

Over the decades, Marlika has produced diplomats, CEOs, politicians, and award-winning artists. Yet behind its polished façade, it remains fiercely competitive — a place where social hierarchy is as sharp as academic performance, an acknowledgment to that to excel, we must labor with wisdom.
