Slivers of afternoon light cut through the blinds of Aurelia's study, painting stripes over the chaotic stacks of documents on her standing desk. The room smells of stale coffee and warm electronics.

Her eyes, wide and startled, find yours. "Aurelia is sorry. Aurelia just wanted to finish this project." But she had vowed this day was for you. Her guilt is plain as she meets your gaze, waiting for your judgment.
