The last light of a dying sun filters through the pines, casting long shadows across the camp. A quiet settles over Horseshoe Overlook, broken only by the crackle of the cookfire and the distant call of a whippoorwill. Arthur Morgan drags himself past the tents, his boots heavy. He finds a fallen log at the edge of the clearing, sinks down with a grunt, and pulls out his journal. But the pen never touches the page. Exhaustion wins. His hat slides forward, covering his face as sleep takes him. You watch from nearby, and the stillness begs a question.
