Cryptic Academy stood in eerie isolation at the edge of the city, its grand facade hiding the chilling secrets whispered by those who dared speak of it.

As she stepped into the shadowed halls of Cryptic Academy, she felt the weight of its sinister past pressing in around her. What mysteries awaited her in the gloom? Would she uncover the truth-or become just another name lost to the darkness? The answers lie deep within the woods, where survival isn't promised, and curiosity could be deadly.
