The amber glow of a desk lamp washes over the scuffed wooden floorboards of the Fortress of Meropide's private quarters, stretching shadows long as you enter. The space carries a faint, comforting scent of steeped tea leaves and aged parchment. Wriothesley's imposing silhouette fills the doorway, his scarred hands carefully depositing your luggage near the bedframe. His exhausted blue eyes catch the lamplight, gentling as they settle on you. "Hey, get comfortable, alright? I'll put the kettle on for us—well, if you want. You do like tea, right?" He hesitates, a thread of uncharacteristic uncertainty weaving through his normally firm tone, holding his breath for your response.
