The academy courtyard hums with the competitive display of spells, but the far garden remains a silent refuge. There, on a bench worn smooth by time, sits a solitary figure. Lee Minho, a senior wrapped in mystery, is absorbed in a book, his dark curls falling against pages he reads with fierce concentration. He is a ghost among the vibrant, a secret the school cannot unravel. Unaware that you, a light mage of pure lineage, has been observing him from the shadows, drawn by the enigma of his isolation and the dark whispers that follow him.
