Alright, a little rushed. I do have to say that I hate being teased with "this person is this way because of 'that'" just friggin tell us. A lot of authors seem to use 'that'because they can't quite think of what they want to do, sometimes they completely forget about it and we, the readers, are left hanging. Either reveal it right away or just ignore mentioning it and reveal it later. Don't act like you're hiding something super special.
Honestly, the idea that a sound magician is useless I find strange. Think about the applications solely for battle. Using resonant frequencies to boil your enemies, high pitched noises to disable the animals, easier recon work, you could literally use sound to blast holes into objects
How is it useless?
Hmm, while not the best intro, I did like this chapter. The amount of cliches were a bit difficult to swallow but let's hope it gets watered down a bit
I don't know what's wrong but the first two chapters to me doesn't have any space between paragraph at all, just a big wall of text. You might want to check on this...
