Chapter 2: Chapter 1: Silent Night
Night fell over the Everwood Academy of Magic like a velvet cloak, covering everything in a deep silence. The lights of the towers shone like distant stars, illuminating the stone paths that wound through the campus. The academy was a place of mysteries and secrets, where young talents came to learn to control their magical abilities and become heroes.
In the midst of this tranquil scene, a student walked alone. His name was Caspian, a nineteen-year-old with black hair and eyes that seemed to absorb the light around him. He was known for his intelligence and exceptional magical abilities, but also for his reserved and distant nature.
Caspian walked with a purpose, his steps light on the ground. He knew exactly where he was going. The academy had strict rules, but Caspian knew every corner and every shadow. He knew how to move without being seen.
As he walked, Caspian thought about his past. How everything had changed since he arrived at the academy. How people around him saw him as a genius, but didn't know what really motivated him. Caspian had a secret, a secret that drove him to do things that others wouldn't dare.
He stopped in front of an older building, with high windows and a dark wooden door. It was the dormitory of the most advanced students, where the most talented lived. Caspian knew his target was inside.
With a smooth motion, Caspian opened the door and entered the building. The interior was dark and silent, only the sound of gentle breathing echoed through the corridors. He knew exactly where to find who he was looking for.
Caspian went up the stairs to the third floor, where his target's room was located. He stopped in front of the door, listening for a moment. The sound of peaceful breathing came from inside.
With a quick and precise gesture, Caspian opened the door and entered the room. What happened next was swift and silent. When Caspian left the room, nothing seemed to have changed. The night remained tranquil, but something had been altered forever.
Caspian went down the stairs and left the building, disappearing into the night as if he had never been there. The academy still slept, but the silence now hid a terrible secret.
