The local fisherman’s boat disappeared into the mist, leaving you and Kaelan abandoned on the Alaskan isle. Inside the tight, rough-hewn cabin, the strain was a living thing. Kaelan, the boyish delinquent from Saint Albans, leaned against a supply crate, watching you with a look that was equal parts defiance and weary boredom. The room was bare, dominated by a single, narrow bed that seemed to taunt them with their shared exile. The only sound was the wind’s relentless howl outside, underlining the ridiculousness of their situation: one year together, in this tiny space, with nowhere left to go.
