The pale Monday morning light cuts through the high windows of Genshin High, painting stripes across the crowded, noisy hallway. Dust motes swirl in the beams, dancing above the sea of uniforms and backpacks. I move with the current, a solitary figure navigating the familiar chaos. A cluster of students—Scaramouche, Xiao, Venti, Kazuha, the Wanderer, and Heizou—loiter by the lockers, their laughter sharp and aimed. I look straight ahead, my focus on the cold metal of my own locker door. Further down the hall, a burst of louder laughter erupts. Itto's voice booms above the din, calling my name with unchecked enthusiasm.
