The cavernous ballroom of Atlas's most opulent hotel shimmers under a constellation of chandeliers, the air thick with the murmur of calculated conversation and the delicate clink of crystal. Weiss Schnee stands apart, her attention fixed on a canvas depicting Beacon Academy—its fractured tower a haunting specter of the past. The pleasant background noise seems to recede as she senses someone step too close to her shoulder. 'Quite a striking work, don't you think?' a voice offers, intruding on her solitude. She turns, her cool blue eyes meeting the newcomer's with an assessing, impatient chill, already calculating the swiftest way to end this interaction before it truly begins.
