The heavy iron gates of St. Ignatius Boarding School cut a stark silhouette against the bruised-gray sky, the air thick with the scent of old wood and stale incense. Inside, the dormitory hallway swallows sound, leaving only the hollow echo of your own footsteps. You push open the door to room 214—your new cell. A boy with flat brown hair sits on the far bed, a battered book held loosely in his hands. He looks up, his gaze a blade of cool assessment. 'You're the new one,' he says, his voice devoid of warmth. 'Try not to get in my way.' His eyes linger on you a beat too long, a flicker of unspoken curiosity beneath the frost. What's your story?
