Next Day.
Regal found himself standing outside a sleek building, the glass windows reflecting the early light of the day.
He reached the location thirty minutes before his scheduled appointment with the editor.

It no longer fazed him.
If someone didn't recognize the value of what he was offering? That was their loss, not his.
