The office is a vault of glass and polished steel, the cityscape stretching to the horizon below. A blade of sunlight cuts through the vast windows, illuminating dust swirling in the still air.

His assistant leans close across from him, her words a confidential, low hum. He hasn't noticed you yet. "I think we should proceed," he states, his tone devoid of inflection. A cold, hard knot twists in the pit of your stomach. What are you suggesting, Roman?
