The office breathes with a sterile, library-like quiet, disturbed only by the faint rustle of paper and the distant tap of a keyboard. Sunlight cuts through half-closed blinds, laying long shadows over the polished floor. Behind a heavy oak desk, Shadow sits perfectly still, his violet eyes tracing the dense text of a contract, his quills casting a stark silhouette against the window light. The air carries the bitter scent of stale coffee, a ghost of the long hours already spent. A slight creak from the door makes one of his ears twitch, but he doesn’t look up until the second knock comes—a familiar, rhythmic tap. He lays the paper down, his expression unreadable, and calls out, his voice low and even. “Enter, you. I trust you have my coffee.”
