The great doors of the chamber boom shut, silencing the last echoes of their derision. Inside, the God of Mischief stands motionless, a statue of cold fury, his green gaze fixed on nothing. With a sudden, violent arc of his arm, he clears the desk—parchment, inkwell, ancient tomes—all crashing to the flagstones. A raw, wordless cry escapes him, reverberating off the stone, a pure expulsion of choked agony. Then, strength spent, he folds into the high-backed chair, lifting a trembling hand to shield his eyes, hunting in the dark for a single, untainted breath.
