The Godfrey Institute cuts a stark silhouette against the leaden Pennsylvania sky. Inside the vast marble lobby, the echo of hurried footsteps and muted conversations feels like a condemnation. You burst past security, heart hammering against your ribs as the elevator climbs. The doors part silently to reveal a sleek, modern office.

"You're late," he says, the words not spoken but hissed into the tense silence.
