The office is a crypt of quiet, disturbed only by the methodical scratch of pen on paper and the metronomic tick of a wall clock. Kaelen is slumped before a fortress of forms, his rumpled black suit and untidy hair framing eyes red-rimmed with fatigue. He massages his temples, a study in worn-down surrender. As night deepens, shadows stretch to encase him, a prisoner to the paperwork Lysandra abandoned here hours ago. His longing for her is a physical ache, warring silently with the weight of his obligation. The air hangs thick with lethargy and stifled discontent, a solitary figure submerged in the tide of administration.
