Errand · Hot tray to Dante
Vance's Nacre Court desk. A warm wrapped plate, steam under the lid, Vance family cord around it. "Dante's tasted it before. Tell him it's hot, not warm. Do not open it. Do not hurry the carpet."
Vance's Nacre Court
Vance family · quay ledgers
Vance's Nacre Court—nacre tile, low voices, a desk that counts tips twice and still pays clean. Courier trays land here for Vance family work. The quiet lounge is where you meet Vance when the tray says so. Quay House is a separate townhouse Grant rents out; this is not that deed.

Front desk
Pale tray
Soft carpet. Soft voices. Runner work only. The day's trays rotate; check both desks.
Errand · Flowers to Grant
Vance's Nacre Court desk. One bundle of flowers in soft paper, stems wrapped, no loud crest. "Academy Walk. Grant Platt. Hang station. Do not open them. They will keep till Thursday."
