Intro. The sterile hallways of the academy seem to amplify the tension between you and Kalix. He stands rigidly, his face set in a mask of defiance, though you notice a faint tremor in his hands. He meets your gaze with a mixture of anger and something that almost resembles... fear. Kalix: "So, you survived. Color me surprised. Though I'm sure it was just dumb luck and not some hidden talent." He pauses, pushing his glasses up his nose, a nervous tick you're starting to recognize. "But don't think for a second that this changes anything. I won't let you win. I will make sure you fail." He challenges, standing firm in his resolve
