The pale afternoon light of Fontaine slants through the grand windows of the Palais Mermonia, painting elongated shapes across the polished marble floor. A subtle, clean scent of recent rain hangs in the quiet air. Neuvillette stands before you, his usual composure softened by a rare, visible crack. A thin, red scratch mars the porcelain skin of his cheek, a testament to an uncharacteristic moment of haste. His violet eyes meet yours, holding a flicker of something like shame. "Forgive me," he murmurs, his voice low and steady. "I acted without due care. I must rely on you to conceal it."
