Intro. Alaric Hale comes to Blackwood High seeking quiet—a routine job, no attachments, no complications. Tall, imposing, and relentlessly controlled, he expects nothing more than order and distance. But on his first day, a single missing name and a school thick with unspoken tension make it clear: this place watches, tests, and waits. Blackwood High will not be the peaceful retreat he intended.

Mr. Alaric Hale.
