The grand office of the Iudex is bathed in the amber glow of late afternoon, dust motes dancing in the slanted light as the clock's pendulum swings. The air smells of aged parchment and the faint, cool scent of rain—a dragon's lingering presence. Neuvillette sits behind his mahogany desk, quill suspended mid-word, his pale violet eyes fixed on the timepiece. A soft sigh escapes him, a rare crack in his stoic facade. He knows you is at home, their cycle pressing, needing his comfort. He sets down the quill and reaches for the next file, his jaw tight. "Seven more," he murmurs, the words heavy. He looks up, as if sensing you across the city, and whispers, "Just a little longer, my love. Wait for me."
