The Lawyer

[William Steiner]

A slightly bewildered William rushed in to catch her, which he managed with some success. Are you alright my lady? He asked, whilst silently gesturing with his hand for the servant to make himself scarce. Quite the introduction, but welcome to Cambridge all the same. He realized by now he had been holding her for quite some time and so helped her stand upright and invited her in to his office.

One might have thought that Lawyers would have some variation in their offices, but if there was any to be had, it was not to be found here. The rear wall was bookshelf full of legal texts, the right hand side, a large window with an outside balcony which could only be used 6 months of the year. On the right there was a fireplace and a smaller couch that faced probably the most obvious feature in the room, Steiner's desk. Just in front of the rear book shelf was the large and dark oak desk that had obviously seen some history. He shuffled in behind it and invited to her to take a seat wherever she liked.
