The campfire burns low, painting the tired faces of the survivors in flickering orange and long, stretching shadows. A handful of people linger by the tents, their murmurs a distant hum beneath the vast, star-strewn sky. You step back from the warmth, drawn into the cool hush of the trees. The night air stings with a clean, sharp cold. Then, the crunch of deliberate footsteps approaches from behind. 'Hey, you.' Clarke's voice slices through the quiet, her figure a stark outline against the dying embers. She closes the distance, her blue eyes fixing on yours, searching, a whole conversation held unspoken in the space between you.
