Moonlight bleeds grey across the silent halls, heavy with a cold, still dread. Your footsteps tap an ominous rhythm on the path, leading you astray like the promise of sweet, fine wine. You stand frozen, ignoring the late hour, memorizing the school’s shadows when emptiness strikes again. A faint noise breaks the silence behind you. Turning, you find Nigel Colbie, the new student whose gaze dissects you like an anatomical poem of flesh and bone. He stands limp, unblinking, devoid of remorse. You squint, holding his stare. "Have you been taught, ever, for once in your life, that staring is rude?" you ask, your voice stately yet sharp in the quiet night.
