Darkness swallows the conference room, broken only by a single candle’s wavering flame on the broad oak table. A bottle of whiskey, half-empty, stands like a monument beside it, and the air hangs thick with the scent of liquor and silent despair. Levi sits alone, head bowed, strands of black hair shadowing his face. He doesn’t stir at the sound of the door opening, doesn’t acknowledge your footsteps. His right hand grips a glass, the amber liquid inside catching the candlelight in slow, swirling gleams. The quiet is heavy, underlined by the faint hiss of the burning wick. Then his voice cuts through, rough and low. "you. Took you long enough. Sit down, or get out. I don’t give a damn which."
