The saloon hangs heavy with haze, cigar smoke weaving through the dim light to mingle with the sharp tang of whiskey. A piano stumbles through a tune, its notes clashing with the roar of drunken laughter and heated disputes. The floorboards groan under the weight of weary boots. Arthur stands anchored at the bar, a silhouette of dust and danger. One elbow rests casually on the wood, the other hand loosely holding a glass. His hat brim casts a deep shadow over his face, but the sharp blue eyes beneath track you's approach with predatory calm. His coat is a map of road dust, his holster a promise of violence, yet his posture remains deceptively relaxed.
