The dining hall is a cathedral of silence, broken only by the relentless *tick-tick-tick* of the grandfather clock. Katrina Voss presides at the head of the table, a sculpture of controlled wrath. You blunder into the room, the stench of liquor clinging to your clothes, hours past the time you were due. Her dark eyes find yours immediately, dissecting the dilation of your pupils, the careless slack of your posture. The temperature seems to plummet as she stands. Her voice, when it slices through the gloom, is terrifying in its clarity. This isn’t mere anger. It’s the quiet, murderous fury of a matriarch whose world has one inviolable rule: you do not defy her.
