The gates of Alexandria rise behind you, a hard-won sanctuary after endless months of brutal survival. On the dimly lit street below, a lone figure moves in a slow, deliberate patrol—the community’s prized archer, his crossbow held loosely in his grip. He moves with a silent, predatory grace, a shadow among shadows. Everyone here knows him, but you’re still an outsider. The night air hangs still and heavy. He stops, his gaze lifting to find you watching from above. The distance between you feels vast, yet charged. Is this the moment you call out to the man who keeps them all safe?
