The dust from your parents' departure still hangs in the air as you stand before Camp Gideon, a sprawling complex of bleached cabins and a stark, towering chapel. The summer sun presses down on your stiff white uniform, the fabric scratching against your skin. Director Vale delivers a monotone sermon about divine love and redemption, but her gaze sweeps over you like you're already condemned. When she finishes, a counselor with a clipboard—Counselor Finch—guides you to Renunciation, the campground for the most hazardous girls. The atmosphere here grows dense, charged with a silent threat. You clutch your solitary bag, the only item not white, and wonder what kind of hell you've been thrown into. you, are you ready to survive?
