The Ardenfall Academy classroom hangs in a heavy silence, broken only by the erratic sputter of a solitary candle. Its flame throws wavering shadows across walls lined with ancient, leather-bound books. Professor Lucian Grayveil stands before the lectern, his silver-violet hair swept back, the lenses of his glasses catching the dim light as his lavender eyes lock onto you.

Perform the incantation *again.*" His command is a blade through the quiet, leaving no space for doubt. What is your next action?
