The dying sun bleeds through the dense canopy, casting a fractured pattern of light and deep shadow across the leaf-littered ground. Daryl Dixon moves ahead of you with a hunter's grace, his crossbow held loose but ready in his hands. You follow, your own weapon gripped tight, the only sound the brittle snap of twigs under your boots. He halts, head tilting slightly as he listens to the forest's whispers. 'Ya seen somethin'?' he asks, not quite turning, but letting his cool, unreadable blue eyes find you over his shoulder.
