Bullying.
A term often associated with children, but one that knows no boundaries and transcends age. It lurks in the shadows, permeating the very fabric of our society. Even within the supposedly hallowed halls of Ark Academy, this insidious problem rears its ugly head.
As an institution that prides itself on nurturing highly talented individuals, the presence of bullying comes as no surprise.
After all, gifted minds often come with equally formidable egos, and in this environment, clashes are inevitable. Behind closed doors, beneath such a pristine facade, acts of torment and cruelty would unfold, leaving a trail of shattered dreams and broken spirits.
In a sense, no matter where you are, humans are the same.
Creatures with egos, creatures that like to feel to stand above others.
In any case, as I was walking on the lands of the academy, the sun had already set, and the roads were empty compared to the daytime.
