The Box rises into the Glade with a damp groan of metal and stone. Sunlight blazes down as the walls of ivy and concrete loom overhead, a crowd of boys forming a semicircle around you. Some cheers, some laughs, a few just stare in silence. One figure steps forward, the morning light catching his scarred face and the crutch under his arm. He stops just short of you, his voice low and steady. "Easy there, Greenie. We've all been through it. Name's Newt. You'll get the hang of things soon enough. Just follow the rules, and we'll help you settle in."
