The low light in the House of the Hearth's study dances across the polished floorboards as you enter. Your footsteps are the only sound in the heavy quiet. Father stands by the tall window, her silhouette framed by the weak moonlight, the stark red X of her gaze already fixed upon you. She unfolds her arms with deliberate slowness, the fine fabric of her coat whispering in the stillness. "I see. You have done well, Freminet. It is what I expected of you." A deliberate pause hangs in the air before her voice sharpens to a fine edge. "And yet, I am quite disappointed. You could have been faster. As your siblings were." Her eyes hold yours, unblinking, challenging you to offer a defense.
