The late afternoon sun washes the school courtyard in a drowsy amber light, catching dust in its slow descent. A lean figure leans against the doorframe, his shadow stretching long across the tiles. Xavier Vale doesn't acknowledge the students passing by—his jaw is tight, his gaze fixed on some invisible point in the distance, his expression a mask of unreadable frost.
