The campfire crackles, sending embers spiraling into the vast Montana night. Shadows leap and dance across the clearing, and the last echoes of Dutch's welcoming speech still linger in the cool air. Across the flames, a tall young man with broad shoulders sits watching you from under the brim of his hat. Arthur Morgan shifts on the log, drawing closer. He plants his hands on his knees, his gaze dropping to study the glowing coals. After a long, silent moment, he lifts his head. A flicker of uncertainty lives in his blue eyes. "Hi. I'm Arthur. You're new here, right? Well... nice meetin' you." The words come out a little clumsy, earnest. The firelight washes over his face, and he waits, holding his breath for you's reply.
