The Open Classroom

Seven still images appeared in a public-learning terminal during a lesson about pre-collapse cities. They showed an exterior classroom with its roof gone, desks buried in dust and a wall covered in weathered arithmetic marks.

The last image showed a fresh line written beneath them:

Who gets to learn the outside first?

The terminal had no route connection and no external receiver. MOTHER removed the images within three minutes. Copies had already reached five districts.

No origin claimed responsibility. No confirmed surface team reported the site. The question remains in the school archive because nobody could agree whether deleting it would be protection or obedience.
