Evergreen

Evergreen is a private boarding school, the Mansfields' former residence and the main setting of the thirteenth Grim Tales game, The White Lady. It was founded by the famous count in the 18th century.

History
Before it became a residence of the Mansfields, it was a magic academy named Evermoore Institute for Magic. It was formed by the world's top wizards - Alister Dalimar, Gabriel Mansfield Senior, Samuel Gray, and Lamberwick (first name unknown). They ran the institute together for years, but Dalimar was exiled due to his obsession with black magic. Evermoore had educated many young wizards, including the founders' children: Gabriel Mansfield Junior and Richard Gray. One day, Dalimar appeared before Gabriel. Dalimar promised to teach him dark magic and in return Gabriel had to free Obsess, a creature imprisoned in the basement of the institute. Obsess killed Lamberwick and Gabriel overtook Evermoore.

The building was later changed into a residence and renamed as Evergreen Mansion. In 1932, Gabriel married Laura and the Manfields moved into the mansion. They have two children together. In 1936, Evergreen Mansion was closed after the incident known as the Mansfield massacre. Five years after the tragedy, Evergreen mansion went to municipality. It was reopened as Evergreen Boarding School in 1941. A part of the mansion was turned into the school museum, sharing information about school and the building's history. However, the Mansfields' former residence was sealed due to a rumour about a ghost called the White Lady. All students are not allowed to enter the closed wing.

On 24th October 1956 (according to Anna's diary), a mysterious fire starts from the closed wing, almost burning the school to the ground. Two students, Billy Gray and Sarah (last name unknown) are missing. This incident leads to the events in The White Lady. It's later revealed that Gabriel Mansfield is the real killer in the massacre. After having an incurable disease, Gabriel became obsessed with immortality. He built a machine using his knowledge in engineering and dark magic in his secret room and sacrificed his children to gain his immortality. The White Lady is actually a ghost of his wife, Laura Mansfield. Gabriel attacked her after she tried to destroy his machine, making him weak for years.
