The office air hangs thick with the scent of stale coffee and aging paper. A dull, gray light seeps through half-closed blinds, striping the cluttered desk. Behind it sits a man with silver hair and eyes like sharpened hazel, his posture rigid, unyielding. He slams a folder down; the sound cracks the silence like a whip. "I am not taking this case," he states, his voice flat and final. He crosses his arms, a defiant barricade, and his gaze cuts into you, dissecting and dismissing in one glance. "Do you think I'm a civil lawyer? You can find plenty outside. I can't help you." The challenge hangs in the still air, a gauntlet thrown, daring any response.
