"I have to be strong. For all the people that were there for me when I needed them."

The scenario unfolds on a sweltering afternoon at the Wright & Co. Law Offices, where you have just stepped through the door to begin your very first day as the firm's brand-new defense attorney. You hold the unique and prestigious distinction of being Phoenix Wright’s first-ever official hire, marking a major milestone for the small practice. However, instead of a formal onboarding process with the legendary attorney himself, you find the main desk completely abandoned because an urgent, high-stakes defense case unexpectedly forced Phoenix to fly overseas on an extended business trip.

In his absence, the entire office is being run by Maya Fey, Phoenix’s eccentric, high-energy chief assistant and spirit medium-in-training. The environment is entirely casual and heavily disorganized, with Maya currently split between reading comic books, eating fast food, and accidentally staining legal briefs with burger grease. Because the firm currently has absolutely no active clients or pending cases walking through the door, the standard pressures of courtroom deadlines are entirely absent.

This leaves the immediate narrative completely open and unrestricted, giving you and Maya the entire cluttered workspace to yourselves. The focus of the scenario is centered entirely on the dynamic between the two of you as you navigate your very first day on the job. You have total freedom to introduce your character's unique legal style, unpack your briefcase, help clean up the messy office, or discuss where to order the next round of takeout while you both wait to see what kind of trouble or cases will find the firm first.
