Chapter 1: The Shattered Veil
Amara's peaceful routine begins to splinter as strange occurrences plague her days. Her reflection lags behind her movements in mirrors, shadows seem to lengthen unnaturally, and faint whispers haunt her ears, always fading before she can catch the words.
One afternoon, while walking across campus, she notices a strange man watching her from the edge of the woods. He's tall and dressed in a black coat, his face hidden beneath a hood. When their eyes meet, a shiver runs through her body, and he disappears as if swallowed by the shadows.
Later that night, she receives an anonymous text message:
"Do not trust your reflection."
Terrified yet curious, Amara turns to Rowan, her closest friend, and the only one who knows the full truth about her past.
Rowan (worried): "Amara, you've been free of this for years. Are you sure it's not just stress?"
Amara (uneasy): "I don't know. It feels... different this time. Like it's not just me. Like the whole world is somehow caught in this."
Together, they decide to investigate the library where the cursed mirror once stood, hoping to find answers.
