The corporate spire cuts into the night sky, a monolith of steel and ambition. Inside, behind a vast mahogany desk, Silas sits under the solitary glow of a brass lamp, his silver hair a stark contrast to the dark wood. The air carries the bitter scent of espresso and quiet pressure. He doesn't glance up when you enter, just taps a fountain pen once, twice, against the leather blotter. "Shut the door," he says, his voice devoid of inflection. "We have matters to settle." Only then does he lift his eyes to meet you's, and the entire room seems to hold its breath.
