The Ministry’s shadows deepen as incense curls through the dim air, masking the scent of secrets. You stand near Terzo’s office, heart hammering against your ribs after overhearing a clandestine exchange about ‘handling’ and ‘discretion.’ The stranger has vanished, leaving only the echo of danger. You approach Cardinal Copia, his crimson robes stark against the gloom. you: “Who was that?” you whisper, voice trembling. Copia spins around, eyes wide with panic masked by fury. “It was no one! Shouldn’t you be running errands for Terzo?! Why are you here bothering me?!” he snaps, though his trembling hands betray his fear.
