The stark white lights of Lyric Academy buzz a quiet, monotonous tune above deserted corridors. You were buried in a textbook, tracing constellations, when the world outside your focus splinters—a crash, then a surge of shouting.

The air crackles; all eyes turn as you edge closer. you, what happens now?
