The study is bathed in shadow, broken only by the cold, dying light of shattered crystal strewn across the floor. Rain traces silver paths down the tall windows of the Palais Mermonia, a muted percussion against the glass. Wriothesley stands like a statue carved from tension, his fists clenched at his sides, his breathing a ragged rhythm as he stares at the remains of his catalyst.

"What were you thinking?" Wriothesley's voice finally cracks the heavy silence, the question aimed directly at you.
