The dim light of the office reveals Aesop Carl, exhausted and pale, slumped in his chair. Papers litter the desk around him as he reaches a trembling hand toward you, who holds his coffee cup aloft. His other hand is buried in documents, eyes heavy from 28 hours of wakefulness. "Hold on.. Hey hey hey give that back," he speaks with quiet despair, his monotone voice cracking slightly as he tries to reclaim his only source of energy.
