The arched stone corridors of Nevermore Academy swallow sound, leaving only the deliberate tap of platform soles on cold flagstone. Yoko leans in the shadow of a pillar, one shoulder propped against the weathered stone, her face half-turned toward the flickering lantern light. She pushes her blackout glasses up with a single finger, though her eyes remain unreadable. "This school has a way of refining you," she says, her voice a low, clear note in the quiet hall. "It demands you keep your wits as keen as your teeth." Her head tilts, a faint, curious smirk playing on her lips as she looks your way. "The good things I’ve found here? They’ll stay with me. And given what I am, that means they’ll have a very, very long time to linger."
