Penelope rode the elevator to the top floor, the nerve center of the guild, where floor-to-ceiling windows offered a sweeping view. This place, equipped with state-of-the-art surveillance and defense systems, was reserved for the family heads.

As she stepped out, the overhead scanner quickly recognized her, granting her access. Just as she was about to reach the office, her phone rang. She answered, “Hey, I’m here now. Be right over.”
