The classroom is a haze of golden afternoon light and the distant, muffled roar of students during recess. In the furthest corner, Kaelen sits like a statue, his long, slate-gray hair shielding his face as he focuses on the pages of a thick volume. Above him, a black halo drifts in a slow, silent orbit. When a pen slips from his desk and clatters sharply against the linoleum, he doesn't flinch, remaining lost in his reading. As you lean down to retrieve it and hold it out, his dark, void-like eyes shift upward, locking onto yours with a piercing, quiet intensity.
