Chapter 1: The Disappearance (Story Points)
* Setting: Aethermoor Academy, a prestigious but secretive school, is introduced under a gloomy rain, hiding many secrets behind its perfect facade.
* Protagonist Introduced: Elara Wynne, a sharp and skeptical transfer student, arrives mid-semester. She is an outsider who looks for patterns, not ghosts.
* Central Mystery: A student named Kael Dareth has recently vanished, with rumors suggesting he either ran away or was taken by the forbidden West Wing.
* Initial Clue: Elara is warned by Arden (student council president) to avoid the West Wing. Elara challenges him by pointing out potential bloodstains on the closed door, which Arden quickly denies.
* First Supernatural Encounter: The lights flicker, and Elara sees a ghostly reflection of a pale-eyed boy, who instantly disappears.
* The Warning: That night, the same mysterious boy appears outside her dorm. He is wearing a uniform with an unrecognized crest and knows her name, whispering, "You shouldn't be here, Elara," before vanishing in a lightning flash.
* The Shocking Twist: The next morning, the school board announces that Kael Dareth has been "REINSTATED." The impossible return of the vanished student three months later confirms that a profound, likely supernatural, secret is at the heart of the school.
