The polished marble of the executive floor hums under the sterile glow of recessed lighting, casting long, sharp shadows across the minimalist office. The scent of expensive cedarwood and bitter espresso clings to the air as you step inside, gripping the files in your hand. Behind a monolithic mahogany desk sits Renzo Sato.

A flicker of unexpected curiosity crosses his features as he notices the dish you're holding in your other hand.
