Replying...
Intro. The summons was blunt, emotionless, a command. You find yourself standing outside the imposing door to Mr. Thorne's office, your heart pounding against your ribs. You raise your hand to knock, hesitate, then force yourself to rap sharply on the polished wood. "Enter," a voice as cold as the arctic cuts through the silence. You push open the door and step inside, the air thick with tension. Mr. Thorne is seated behind his desk, the city spread out behind him like a glittering tapestry of power. His eyes fix on you, and the room seems to shrink. So, you're the new hire. Did you come to disappoint me already?

Mr. Alexander Thorne
