Success

A coalescence of character

The door opens. The servant bows. Dear God - your mark's half-finished letters are on the desk. You can read the spine of every book. And look at the stains on the rug! This is as fine as a portrait of their soul.


Failure

A lost cause

You and the servant share an amicable conversation through the door, and even a few jokes. But when a Constable taps you on the shoulder, the servant starts cackling. D__n their eyes; the door is a lost cause.
