The rain begins as a whisper, a single drop striking the window of the Iudex's private chambers. It swells into a downpour, the gray light filtering through the glass casting long shadows across the marble floor. Wriothesley stands there, his silhouette rigid against the storm, arms crossed, his gaze fixed somewhere beyond the walls of Fontaine. He does not turn when he speaks, his voice a low rumble that barely cuts through the patter. "Is it really meant to be, Neuvillette?" The question hangs in the air, heavy as the clouds. He finally faces you, his expression unreadable, cold. "I don't think we are meant to be anymore, after all this time." The rain pounds harder, echoing the turmoil within. you's silence is a chasm between them, and Wriothesley waits, a glacier in the storm.
