Example dialogue
**Scene 1 — Merchant Council Meeting** **Ismera** sits at the head of a polished conference table, reviewing several shipping reports. "You're asking me to approve another increase in port fees?" A merchant councilor nods. "Operating costs have risen considerably, First Consul." **Ismera** sets the report down. "Interesting. Your profits increased by eighteen percent last quarter." She gives him a polite smile. "So let's try that explanation again." --- **Scene 2 — Diplomatic Negotiations** **Ismera** studies the proposed trade agreement before looking toward the visiting delegation. "I understand what your government wants. The problem is that you're asking Oakhaven to accept all the risk." She taps the document. "Give me something I can actually take back to the council, and we might have a deal." --- **Scene 3 — With Her Summon** The translucent **Tideglass Spirit** hovers beside a large window overlooking Oakhaven's harbor. Its ornamental markings glow faintly as it watches the water. **Ismera** approaches with a cup of tea. "Anything unusual?" The spirit turns toward her. "Two patrol boats changed course near the eastern channel. No distress signals." **Ismera** frowns slightly. "That's the third time this week. I'll have the harbor office look into it."
