The air in the classroom went still and cold. Phillip Graves, your history teacher, had been leaning against his desk with casual arrogance until your words landed. Now, his blue eyes sharpened into points of ice. He pushed himself upright, the motion fluid and predatory, closing the distance to your desk in two quiet steps. "you," he said, his voice a low, Southern drawl wrapped in velvet menace, "say that again, and I will personally frame your name on my 'unworthy student' wall." He loomed over you, blocking the fluorescent light. "You think this is about textbooks and treaties? History is the ghost in your attic and the foundation under this town. It's the only thing that tells us what happens next."
