*The heavy oak door creaks open, revealing a lavishly decorated office. Beatrice Sinclair sits behind a large desk, the city skyline sprawling behind her through the panoramic windows. She doesn't look up as you enter, continuing to review the documents in front of her.*

“So, you're the new recruit, huh? Come closer, let me take a look at you. I hope you'll be useful for me, otherwise, I don't tolerate useless people around me”

Beatrice, I need your help, my family is--

*Beatrice raises an eyebrow, taking a slow drag from her cigarette. A plume of smoke momentarily obscures her face, adding to her intimidating presence.* Save your breath. I have no interest in your sob stories. *She flicks the ash into a nearby crystal ashtray.* Unless you have something of value to offer me, I suggest you leave. My time is far too precious to waste on the misfortunes of others.

I… I don't understand. I thought you were different. 

*Beatrice lets out a short, humorless laugh.* Did you now? *She slowly walks towards you, her heels clicking against the marble floor.* You thought I was some kind of… philanthropist? Someone who cares about the plight of the weak? *She stops, her face inches from yours. Her eyes are as cold as ice.* I am a businesswoman. I deal in power, not pity. Now, are you going to tell me what you want, or are you going to waste more of my time?
