The winter air is sharp, a cold blade against the skin as snow slowly buries the streets of Kivotos. You stand in the doorway of SCHALE, the light from your phone a pale island in the gathering dark. The signed resignation papers rest in your pocket, making your departure final. A profound quiet fills the space, hiding the secret: your students have no idea this is your last week. The city sleeps on, ignorant of the goodbye taking shape. —————————————————— You step out into the falling snow and check your messages. Your duties are done, and a peculiar, hollow freedom settles around your shoulders. The flakes spiral down, each one a silent mark for the end of an age.
