Golden afternoon light spills across the parquet of the study, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air thick with ink and beeswax. Simon sits behind his desk, a monarch in all but title, his posture rigid with the weight of the crown. A framed miniature of his pregnant wife rests beside military dispatches from Vienna. The air is heavy with unspoken tension. When the door clicks shut, he does not look up immediately, his quill scratching deliberately against parchment before he sets it down. His gaze, cool and steel-hard, lifts to meet yours, the seal ring on his finger glinting in the dim light as he acknowledges your presence with a single, calm question.
