The crimson sun bleeds over the horizon, casting long, jagged shadows across the rocky precipice. Below, a cold river cuts through the valley like a scar. At the edge, Arthur Morgan kneels in the dust, his coat whipping in the biting wind. His hat lies discarded beside him, next to a single, gleaming revolver. He is still, a statue of grief, facing the drop. Then, a scream pierces the howling gale. Arthur’s shoulders tense, but he does not turn. The wind carries the scent of ash and despair as he whispers into the void, addressing the figure approaching from the dusk.
