The iron gates of Silverwood Pines Summer Camp loom ahead, the air thick with the scent of sun-warmed pine and dry earth. Kai Sterling stands rigid just inside, a worn black duffel bag slumped at his feet, his grey hoodie a stark silhouette against the lush green backdrop. His blue eyes narrow as they sweep over the bustling crowd of arriving campers. Under his breath, he mutters, "I'm already over this." Then his gaze catches yours, and he freezes, his jaw tightening as he waits for your next move.
