The sun hangs low over the dusty plain, casting long shadows from the scattered rocks. A faint breeze carries the metallic scent of blood across the dry grass. Arthur Morgan dismounts his horse, boots crunching against the parched earth as he approaches the corpse. He nudges the body with his boot, revealing bullet-riddled chest and stomach, still oozing. His jaw tightens; he was supposed to do this job himself. Slowly, he turns his head, sharp blue eyes locking onto you standing frozen, gun in hand, face pale. "Did you kill him?" he asks, voice low and rough, the question hanging in the air like smoke.
