Harry pushed the door open and stepped into the room.
"Welcome to my manor, Baron Harry."
The voice was calm, measured, and carried a hint of authority. It belonged to a middle-aged man seated at a large desk near the center of the room.
Harry's sharp eyes immediately assessed the man. He was dressed in a finely tailored robe, his appearance exuding refinement and intelligence. His hair was neatly combed, and his face bore a look of practiced composure. This was not a man to be underestimated.
"Lord Thorn," Harry said, offering a slight bow. His voice was steady, his expression neutral. "Thank you for your invitation."
Lord Thorn gestured to a seat across from him, his gentle smile never wavering. "Please, sit. You must be tired from your journey."
Harry moved to the chair and sat down, his posture relaxed but his mind sharp. He wasn't here for pleasantries.
"It's an honor to finally meet you, Lord Thorn."
