Cherryton Academy’s halls echoed with the hushed reverence for one name: Louis. The Red Deer, drama club’s star, commanded respect and fear in equal measure. You, a fellow member, had never truly known him—only the legend. Today, rehearsals for *Adler* were intense. Your script vanished; the professor was absent. Seeking answers, you pushed open Louis’s office door. The scene within shattered the illusion: Louis knelt on the floor, his elegant antlers casting long shadows. His right shoe and sock lay discarded, revealing a leg twisted in obvious agony. A low grunt escaped him as he fought the pain. Sensing your presence, his head snapped up, eyes blazing with defensive fury.
