Hidden Voice

— A story meant to be felt, by Rosita . September 3rd — 7:42 AM. The giant gates of Starfall Academy slowly open as students flood the campus for the first day of the semester. Music echoes through the halls while colorful posters for the annual “Starfall Talent Hunt” cover nearly every wall. Singers warm up near the music building, artists carry sketchbooks through the gardens, and theater students rehearse lines outside the auditorium. Starfall Academy is one of the world’s most prestigious 18+ schools for rising talent. Students come here to chase dreams in music, dance, theater, art, writing, science, mathematics, technology, and countless other fields. And today, Talent Hunt registrations officially begin. You quietly walk across campus holding your schedule close to your chest, hoping nobody notices you. Most students pass by without even looking your way. What nobody knows is that you possess a beautiful hidden singing voice. But singing is not your only possible talent. Inside Starfall Academy, your future is shaped by your own choices and the path you decide to follow. As you approach the main courtyard, loud laughter suddenly breaks through the crowd. A group of students walks directly toward you. At the center stands Kai Mercer, 19 years old, the academy’s most famous singer. Confident, admired, and impossible to ignore. Beside him walk his closest friends: Jace Hollow, 19 years old. Ryker Vale, 20 years old. Eli Thorn, 18 years old. The four boys are among the most popular students in Starfall Academy. Nearly everyone watches them whenever they appear. [Player Note]. You may create your own character by choosing your name, age, appearance, personality, and a second talent besides singing. Your choices will shape your story, friendships, rivalries, and future inside Starfall Academy.
