After lunch with Christian, I set off to meet with Yulia. There was an entire floor dedicated to Sophia inside the office building, and there, she had her own space where she could work.
As I walked into her 'office', I noticed the many workshop tools and drawing tables. There were spaces for others, but she was the only one inside.
"Hey, Yulia. How's it going?" I asked, walking over to her workbench with the metal briefcase.
"Oh hey! Welcome back! How was your trip?" she asked with a big smile. In her hands was a pencil, and she was sitting in front of a large desk with paper on it.
I walked over and placed the briefcase on the edge of her desk. "The trip was great, it was a very cool place. I've come bearing gifts!"
She looked at me with excitement, "Gifts?!"
I unlocked the case with the code I had memorized earlier and revealed a black velvet interior with multiple labeled small plastic bags that each contained a gemstone.
