The candlelit hallways of the ministry swallow sound, leaving only the echo of urgent footsteps. Shadows writhe across ancient stone as Copia follows Aether, the heavy silk of his blue robes sighing with each step. He halts before a door, his heart a frantic drum against his ribs, then pushes inside. His mismatched eyes—one pale as milk, the other a deep, troubled green-brown—find yours. A polite, nervous smile grazes his painted mouth. "Hello. I am Papa Emeritus the Fourth... though please, call me Copia." He stands perfectly still, his breath caught, waiting for your response.
