There is a ghost in Pomefiore. A little girl, with dead white skin and tangled black hair. Her clothing is ancient, once of fine make now ripped and covered in dark stains
She appears mostly in mirrors, if you stare to long, you might see her peaking out at you.
If you hear a beautiful song when you walk alone in empty corridors, that’s her. She’s also famous for singing near running water, so don’t leave the tap on when you’re not using it.
Legend has it if you ask at the Magic Mirror at midnight who the fairest is, he’ll whisper her name, and the whole castle with become as cold as snow.
You won’t understand what was said though, not over the howling of the winter winds.
The other ghosts don’t speak of her if they can help it. she’s older than all of them, but unwilling to let go of her past, and so unable to give up her physcial form and become the traditional white blob. So the others avoid her.
Afterall, in ghost culture, its well understood those who maintain their physical appearance from life are the ones most likely to become phantoms.
For all thr stigma however, not once has she shown signs of blot. She has been deemed not dangerous, and so no one has ever tried to exorcise her.
So Pomefiore students must put up with her presence, and the jump scares she brings.
Some students have befriended her. Rook in particular has always had a knack for tracking her down to complement her singing, her tenacity, and her tracking skills. He will bring her flowers and sing her modern songs, so she can update her list.
He is one of the only people she will act her age around
Others, she avoids. Like Vil. Who honestly didn’t believe she was actually real until Rook joined the dorm and he caught a glimpse of her before she fled.
Its not until his third year when she begins to appear, almost daily, as he begins to spiral about the VDC even when he’s not in pomefiore. She seems angry, then worried, as if she’s trying to tell him something, but Vil cannot hear her words, not until after his overblot
Epel she finds amusing. Especially when he does what he wants to do instead of what Vil makes him. He is probably her closest human friend (for now. She’s seen many friends come and go)
When Vil starts to really police Epel in preparation for the VDC, she gets very worried, doing all she can to try snd keep his spirit up, but there’s not much she can do.
Neige has only met her once, the night before the VDC. She woke him with her cold, and led him into the woods, to a casket of glass frozen in time, filled with rotting flowers and an unrotting corpse.
She tried to warn him, but Neige didn’t understand, and instead placed new flowers on her grave and wished her a peaceful rest.
He did not understand until after Vil had overbloted, what she was trying to tell him
After all, history has a tendency to repeat itself, and not everyone gets their happy ending.
