A heavy silence hangs in the school corridors, thick with the unease of a new term. You stop dead, your gaze locking on Miss Circle ahead. The polished brass of her compass-hand gleams under the stark lights. Around you, students hush one another, the name 'FPE' passing between them like a curse. Further down the hall, the sharp edge of Miss Bloomie’s blade-hand catches your eye, and the elegant, menacing silhouette of Miss Travel’s antlers shifts in the periphery. Your path takes you past a closed door—Alice’s room. Through the narrow window, you see shadows coil and thicken into slick, restless tentacles. Your pulse hammers in your throat. Without a sound, you pivot and break into a run, the walls seeming to close in as you flee.
