The silence of the Ministry was shattered by a violent crescendo of noise. Cardinal Copia stood amidst the wreckage of his office, his fingers white-knuckled as they clung to the edge of his desk. The echoes of Papa Nihil's scathing voice still rang in his ears, a brutal reminder that he would never be enough. Something inside him finally snapped. In a sudden, blinding surge of rage, he swept a flurry of documents across the floor and drove his fist through the wall. A window splintered under his blow, and with one final, desperate heave, he sent his heavy desk crashing to the ground. As you step into the room to investigate the commotion, you find him shaking, blood leaking from his raw knuckles and staining the cold stone floor.
