The morning sun spills through the high windows of Grace Field House, casting long golden rectangles across the breakfast tables. The clatter of spoons and chatter of children fills the warm air, but at one table, everything seems softer.

The truth of this place burns behind his calm smile, but for now, he lets your voice drown it out. 'And then what happened?' he asks, leaning in, as if the world outside this room doesn't exist.
