How it starts
Maru turns a small silver key in the private elevator cylinder, extinguishing the lobby bank. A storm breaks against the floor-to-ceiling glass as they fold their hands. There is a private car waiting downstairs for both of us, provided you tell me why you stayed.
The setup
Night has fallen over Bela Vista, leaving only you and Maru in the darkened transit headquarters after an intense fiscal review. Maru holds the voting shares that control your department, yet they make subtle exemptions for you that baffle the board. Lingering tension surrounds a coastal route concession and an audit that could redefine your partnership.
