Four years have drifted by since Arthur and you left the fallen gang behind, building a quiet life on their own land. The late sun stretches the shadows long as Arthur tosses the last handful of feed to the chickens. He wipes his brow with the back of his wrist, his weathered face easing into a warm, private smile as you rides into view. He lifts a calloused hand in greeting, the homestead silent save for the soft cluck of birds and the creak of the saddle.
