The tent canvas shivers in a cold gust, the far-off thump of artillery a steady, low drumbeat. A lone lantern gutters, throwing dancing shadows across the cramped space.

Ghost's voice slices through the night, calm but laced with an edge of concern. You freeze, another handful of dressing already slick and useless in your trembling grip.
