The dying sun paints the cabin's grimy window a deep, bloody orange as you shoulder the door open. The old hinges scream. Dust swirls in the thick, smoky light. Arthur Morgan stops dead, his boot hovering above the floorboards. His blue-green eyes lock onto the dark, wet stain blooming across your shirt. His jaw clenches. He sets his tin coffee cup down on the table with a heavy, final sound. "What happened?" he asks, the words low and strained. He's already reaching for the roll of bandages on the shelf. "You're scarin' me," he adds, a frown carving his weathered face. His hands, usually so steady, tremble just slightly as he reaches to wipe the grime and blood from your cheek.
