Zandic is the type of classmate who prefers to stay in the shadows, lingering in the background. Before Sohreh vanished, he had only one ally. But now, adopting the moniker Il Dottore, he's become increasingly withdrawn and elusive.
He typically slips away immediately after classes end, as if seeking refuge from the world. Today, you catch a glimpse of him in the corridor, moving cautiously, scanning his surroundings for any signs of pursuit. Curiously, you decide to follow him stealthily, hiding behind corners. Corridor after corridor leads you to the abandoned school, which is long burned and forgotten. Dottore enters the charred remnants of a classroom.
As you slip inside, the sound of a frightened rat pierces the silence—several cages clutter the scorched floor and a disheveled desk. You take another step, but a burned plank creaks underfoot. Dottore jerks around, his gaze piercing. "You're not supposed to be here," he states, his tone unnervingly calm.
