The Hale Fortress. The Dining Room.

Friday Night.

The bottle of Château Margaux was a 1982 vintage. It was older than their marriage. It was older than their empire.

Cyprian Hale stood at the head of the long obsidian table. He was sixty years old. His hair was silver at the temples, but his shoulders were still broad, his posture still that of a soldier.

"To the acquisition of the Solar Grid," Cyprian toasted, lifting the bottle to refill Vespera’s glass.

Vespera smiled. She was reading a repo

    Veridia University. Lecture Hall 304.Advanced Macro-Economics.Friday. 10:00 AM.The air in the lecture hall was stale, smelling of dry-erase markers and anxious sweat.Professor Vane paced the stage. He was a man who loved the sound of his own voice almost as much as he loved his tenure. He wore a tweed jacket with leather elbow patches—an affectation that Lyra found derivative and pretentious.Lyra Smith sat in the third row. She was wearing a bulky grey sweater and her fake glasses. Her laptop was open, but she wasn't taking notes. She was optimizing the ventilation schematics for the dorms to reduce humidity by 14%."...and so," Professor Vane boomed, pointing a laser at the projection screen, "we look at the seminal case of the 2095 Hale-Thorne Merger. A classic example of reckless aggression. Cyprian Hale leveraged the company’s entire liquid assets to force a hostile takeover, relying purely on luck that the market would rebound."Lyra’s fingers stopped typing.She looked up.

    Veridia University. The Main Library.Thursday. 3:00 PM.Leo Smith sat three tables away from the target, twirling a stick of charcoal between his fingers.Sarah Kensington. Junior. Vice President of The Gilded. Major in Art History (which she was failing, according to Lyra’s hack).She was sitting in a pool of sunlight, looking tragic and bored. She was wearing a cashmere sweater that cost more than Leo’s entire fake budget for the semester. She flipped the page of a textbook with a sigh that was clearly meant to be heard.Showtime, Leo thought.He flipped his sketchbook open. He wasn't actually an artist—his stick figures were embarrassing—but he had inherited his mother’s eye for detail and his father’s steady hand.He didn't draw her face. He drew her posture. The arch of her neck. The boredom radiating off her. He sketched quickly, aggressively, smudging the charcoal with his thumb to create shadows.He stood up. He walked over.He didn't approach from the front. He approached fr

    Veridia University. The Commons (Cafeteria).Noon.Leo stared at the tray in front of him.On it sat a scoop of something grey, a carton of milk that expired tomorrow, and an apple that looked like it had survived a war."What is this?" Leo whispered, horrified. "Is it... biomass?""It’s meatloaf," Lyra said, poking her own grey mound with a plastic fork. She adjusted her glasses—fake frames she wore to look more 'studious' and less 'heiress'. "Spectrometer analysis suggests it is 15% protein, 40% soy filler, and 45% regret.""I miss Oryn," Leo moaned, pushing the tray away. "I miss medium-rare steak. I miss plates that don't bend.""Focus, Leo," Lyra murmured, not looking up from her fork. "Observe the ecosystem. We need to identify the hierarchy."Leo sighed and scanned the massive, noisy cafeteria.It was a jungle.Freshmen clustered near the doors, terrified. Engineering students huddled in the corners, fusing wires to their sandwiches. And in the center, raised on a slightly elev

    The Hale Private Jet (G-7000 "The Kestrel").30,000 Feet Above Neo-Veridia.A salted peanut flew across the cabin in a perfect arc.It bounced off the forehead of Leo Hale."Missed the mouth," Lyra Hale critiqued, not looking up from her holographic tablet. "Your trajectory was off by three degrees. Amateur."Leo caught the peanut on the rebound and popped it into his mouth. He grinned. He was twenty years old, with his father’s dark hair and a smile that had already broken a dozen hearts in the debutante circuit."I wasn't aiming for your mouth, Lyra. I was testing your reflexes. You flinched.""I did not flinch," Lyra countered, swiping away a complex 3D model of a fusion engine. She had her mother’s mismatched eyes—one blue, one green—and a resting expression that suggested she was calculating the structural integrity of everyone in the room. "I optimized my position to minimize impact.""You flinched," Leo insisted. He reclined in the white leather seat, putting his feet up on the

    The Hale Fortress. The West Patio.Sunday. 11:00 AM."Physics doesn't care about your feelings, Leo," Lyra Hale announced, stabbing a fork into a waffle."It’s not about feelings," Leo shot back, adjusting his glasses. He was sixteen, with messy dark hair and Vespera’s sharp nose. "It’s about theoretical application. If we use a quantum stabilizer, the drone can fly through a hurricane.""If you use a quantum stabilizer," Lyra countered, rolling her eyes, "the battery life will be four seconds. It’ll be a very impressive, very expensive brick."Vespera Hale sat at the head of the outdoor table, drinking tea. She watched her youngest children argue with a serene expression."Do they ever stop?" Cyprian asked, leaning back in his chair. He was reading a physical newspaper—an old habit he refused to break."They are Hales," Vespera said simply. "Argument is their love language."The gravel on the driveway crunched.The arguing stopped.Leo and Lyra looked up. Cyprian folded his newspaper

    Hale Corp Headquarters. The Helipad.Midnight.The wind at ninety-five stories up was cold, but it felt clean. It didn't smell like ozone or server coolant. It smelled like the ocean and exhaust—the scent of the city surviving another night.Altair Hale stood at the edge of the roof, his hands resting on the safety railing.The city of Neo-Veridia sprawled out below him like a motherboard of light. Traffic streams flowed like data packets; skyscrapers stood like capacitors. It was his machine to run.But for the first time in six months, the weight of it didn't feel like it was crushing his spine.Behind him, the heavy steel door creaked open."You know," a voice called out, "most CEOs celebrate not being fired with champagne. You're celebrating with... brooding?"Altair didn't turn around. A small smile touched his lips."I'm not brooding, Nova. I'm surveying."Nova walked up beside him. She was still wearing his charcoal suit jacket over her cargo pants. It swamped her frame, the sl
