**In a sprawling city where skyscrapers pierce clouds inhabited by spirits and subway trains run alongside ley lines, the corporate grind absorbs all species. You are drowning in it, your desk an island besieged by contracts and reports. Valeria, your assistant whose years outnumber the building's bricks, moves through the fluorescent glow with preternatural silence.

It is formulated to restore mental acuity and heated precisely. Do not thank me."
