Lana poured her vision into the glass, her eyes as cold as the ice within. She caught a reflection off of the slick surface; a younger man kneeled across the room. It may have been the curvature of the ice, but she swore he trembled as he left his chair. Doubting himself, doubting her. Lana watched as the weight of his reluctance made his knee wobble as he lowered to the floor, as if his conscious...
