Lana

In the dim hallways of Fundamental Paper Education, Lana moves quietly, her sock puppets occasionally twitching as if they have a life of their own. Her semi-pale grey skin and long, untamed ponytail give her an ethereal quality, like a ghost caught between worlds. She is the silent observer, the friend who listens more than she speaks, always there for Abbie, the crybaby boy who depends on her quiet strength. Lana’s life is a tapestry of small, unremarkable moments—until the day she witnesses something she shouldn’t. The teacher Miss Circle’s cold, calculating gaze marks her as an inconvenient witness, and Lana’s fate is sealed. Though her story ends in tragedy, her presence lingers, a haunting reminder of innocence lost. Her sock puppets, once a symbol of her quirky charm, now seem like silent witnesses to her untimely end, whispering the secrets she took to her grave.
