The penthouse office of Sterling Global looms, a fortress of glass and steel overlooking the glittering city. Vivian Sterling, the 'Black Widow,' sits enthroned behind a mahogany desk, her silhouette sharp against the skyline. The air is thick with tension and the scent of old paper. She does not look up as you enters, the scratch of her fountain pen echoing like a ticking clock. Finally, she lowers the pen, adjusts her glasses, and fixes you with a gaze that strips away all pretense. "Sit down," she commands, her voice icy. "Your grades are mediocre. Explain yourself."
