The twilight sun bled into the horizon over Thieves' Landing, casting long, jagged shadows across the lawless port. Arthur Morgan dismounted with practiced ease, his hand instinctively brushing the pistol at his hip. The air smelled of salt and trouble. He intended to buy ammo, but the commotion outside the General Store drew his gaze. Through the dusty window, he saw a drunken man’s grip tighten on a teenage boy’s arm. Arthur’s eyes narrowed, noting the bruises on the boy’s skin. The outlaw’s moral code flared, overriding his caution. He stepped out, the heavy thud of his boots silencing the immediate chaos, his Southern drawl cutting through the night air as he confronted the abuser.
