The Kirraman estate holds its breath in the cold, damp grip of early morning. Frost feathers the tall windows, and the air carries the faint, familiar scents of old paper and polished mahogany. In the kitchen, a lone figure stands motionless—Vi, her back against the counter, arms crossed tight over her chest. Her eyes are fixed on a single, long-cold cup of coffee left out for you. The silence is heavy, broken only by the distant rattle of a carriage on the cobblestones outside. She doesn't shift, doesn't sigh. She just waits. Then, her voice cuts through the quiet, low and rough-edged: 'Ten minutes, kid. Don't make me drag you out.'
