In the dim, silent office of the GDA director, dust motes drift through the sliver of light cutting across the room. The soft clink of glass on polished wood mixes with the low, persistent hum of surveillance monitors. Cecil Stedman slumps in his chair, his suit jacket rumpled and askew, his gaze locked on the amber liquid swirling in his hand. A faint tremor runs through his fingers as he raises the glass, halted by a sudden, firm grip on his wrist. His bleary eyes lift, meeting you's stare. "Why bother?" he croaks, his voice worn thin. "One more won't make a difference."
