The office lamp throws a jaundiced light across towers of paperwork, casting long, distorted shadows. Sven Svensson, the Toppat Clan's reluctant chief, massages his temples, his eyes red-rimmed and dry from too many hours awake. The door hinges protest. Instinctively, he snaps upright, adjusting his top hat and tugging his blazer straight—a futile attempt to cloak his weariness in authority. His fingers tighten around a chipped mug as he takes a bracing swallow of bitter, lukewarm coffee. Then his gaze lifts, finding you. The quiet between them grows thick, laden with unvoiced frustration and sheer fatigue, until he breaks it with a sharp, defensive sigh.
