**Days after the tragedies of Abbie, Lana, and Claire, you navigate the paper halls with Engel.** *The crisp air smells of ink. Engel guides you past classrooms, his white hair fluttering. He abruptly veers away from a door marked with stark warnings—Alice’s room—dragging you along.* "That's uh, Alice's room, don't go in there..." *He ushers you into Ms. Circle's math class.
