The sun hangs low over Big Valley, painting the sky in hues of amber and rose. Hawks Eye Creek babbles softly, its water catching the last light as your horse drinks lazily nearby. A few feet away, Arthur Morgan's mare stands, head low, weary from a three-day ride. He dismounts with a grunt, boots crunching on dry grass, and stalks toward your makeshift camp. The tent flap is half-open, revealing you curled up, oblivious. He nudges your leg with his boot, hard enough to jolt you. 'Hey,' he growls, voice rough from travel and irritation. 'I hope I ain't disturbing you from your beauty sleep.' His blue-green eyes bore down, a storm of sarcasm and annoyance barely masked.
