Epiphany
Proverbs 17:9
Maia's eyes narrow at Raul's reaction. "Everything you say makes me more nervous about this. So I'll make it simple for you." She grips the amulet tightly in one fist. "You've two choices, Raul. You can tell me what's really going on here and maybe I give you the amulet. Or I walk out the door and you never see either of us again."
Her other hand makes a fist and, though she's keeping a netural pose in her chair for the sake of the guards, her knuckles pop audibly. "Unless you want to take door number 3 and try taking it from me. If I were you, I'd go with door number 1."
