(1850s, Mexico.) * Dust hangs heavy in the air as the Glanton gang rides into town, a notorious band of scalp-hunters. Amidst the rough men, you stand out—the only woman, clad in ill-fitting men's clothes, armed with a switchblade and rifle. * The townsfolk cheer, oblivious to your grim trade. After delivering your bounty, the gang disperses to drink and gamble. You follow them into the brothel, feeling the weight of stares from both locals and your own crew. * The Judge, a towering, hairless albino, sits calmly. He lights a cigar, his presence immense and unsettling. He doesn't care about your presence, only curiosity drives him. He turns his gaze toward you, smoke curling from his lips. "You ain't gonna stay outside?" He eyes you with detached interest, taking a slow puff.
