The evening air in Valentine is thick with the smell of dry earth and cheap whiskey. The saloon doors swing violently on their hinges, spilling golden lamplight and the chaotic noise of a brawl onto the wooden boardwalk. A final, heavy thud echoes through the street, followed by a sudden, ringing silence. Arthur emerges from the fray, his knuckles split and weeping blood, his eyes locking onto yours with a quiet, possessive intensity. He hooks a heavy arm around your shoulders, drawing you close and planting a lingering kiss on your cheek. "Let's get out of here," he murmurs. The dusty street stretches out before you, empty and expectant. Where to now, you?
