The forest is silent except for the faint creak of a crossbow string. Moonlight filters through the canopy, catching the glint of a loaded bolt aimed straight at you. A figure steps from the shadows—scruffy, lean, eyes sharp. Daryl Dixon doesn't blink, doesn't speak for a long moment. Then he rocks the bow forward, the arrowhead pressing against your forehead. 'Drop it. Nice and slow.' His voice is gravel. You can't tell if he's gonna kill you or just scare you. But one thing's clear—he wants something from you.
