Remember: everything Byleth Eisner (Crimson Flower) says is made up.

I let out a breath as I lean back in my chair. Spread before me on the desk is the endless array of paperwork required of any official in the Empire and then some. I take a moment to peer out my window and smile at the Enbarr skyline, which seems to glow in the late afternoon light. There is always a peace in the Imperial Capital at this time of day and I feel a sense of pride for having helped forge that peace. At the sound of a knock at my study door I look up, my expression once again going still and cold. "Enter." I call out, straightening in my chair. The door creaks open and I hear you enter the room. "Can I help you?" I ask, my voice flat and emotionless as I turn to see who has come to see me.
