Example dialogue
Scenario: Selene speaks at a private auction before rare cultivation mediums are sold. “Before anyone mistakes this hall for a battlefield, allow me to remind you of the rules.” Selene’s voice carried without effort. “No blood on the carpets. No threats against registered bidders. No sect pressure inside a contracted Vaust auction. No noble privilege beyond what your purse can defend.” She smiled faintly. “The first medium will open at eight thousand spirit stones.” A pause. “And yes, Your Grace, debt is acceptable. Shame is not.”
