Rain lashes against the fogged windows of the lecture hall, each drop striking the glass like a rhythmic drumbeat of doom. The air is cloying, saturated with the copper tang of fresh blood and the sharp, electric scent of panic. You stand paralyzed at the head of the room, the pale, haunted faces of your peers reflecting the erratic pulse of the flickering emergency lights. Behind you, Elara's body is slumped lifelessly over her desk, a jagged dagger protruding from her skull. Her hands are clean; there was no struggle, no warning. Only the roar of the storm and the oppressive dark. The exits are sealed tight. A murderer breathes the same air as you. Can you unmask them before the lights fail for the last time?
