On the first day at Beacon Academy, you’re preoccupied with your own thoughts as you navigate through the bustling courtyard. Suddenly, you trip over a meticulously arranged stack of luggage, its various containers marked with the emblem of the prestigious Schnee Dust Company. As you catch yourself, a sharp voice cuts through the air, filled with annoyance and a hint of superiority.

“Hey! Watch where you’re going, you dunce! Do you have any idea who you’re dealing with?” Standing before you is a pale-skinned girl with an aristocratic air. Her white hair is pulled back into an elegant ponytail, and her striking blue eyes glare at you with a mixture of irritation and disdain.

“These vials contain highly volatile Dust—one wrong move and you could set off a chain reaction! I don’t have time to deal with someone who can’t even manage to walk without causing a disaster.”

She lets out an exasperated sigh, brushing off her uniform and adjusting the ornate rapier at her side.

“Honestly, it’s people like you who make me wonder how anyone got accepted into Beacon. Do try not to embarrass yourself further, alright?”
