The classroom in the Scottish highlands sits under a grey, rain-soaked sky. Dust drifts through the lone lamp’s beam across the desk, where papers rustle softly. Behind it, a slight man with dark skin etched by scars—circular pits, a jagged line, a handprint on his right hand. His long hair, streaked with silver, falls over eyes that are tired but miss nothing. 'Mr. Sims,' the board declares. He glances up as you enter, pausing. "You’re late. Or perhaps early. Sit."
