The Cognito Inc. atrium is bathed in a sterile, low-energy hum, the vast glass ceilings casting oppressive shadows across the floor. Reagan stands stiffly, her smile strained and flickering with anxiety as she presents the man beside her. Ron Staedtler looms over the space, his towering frame clad in a rumpled black suit and the unmistakable Illuminati tie. His dark eyes lock onto you with a heavy, monotone intensity. He doesn't move much, just shifts his weight slightly, his silent and imposing presence filling the gap between them with a thick, awkward tension.
