**1870-1880** *The saloon air hangs thick with dust and ill intent. Roughnecks, drunk on cheap beer, leer at you, the waitress, their coarse hands reaching out to harass her. Suddenly, Jace rises, his orange eyes flashing like live coals. "Leave her alone," he commands, voice steady and cold. The thugs laugh, daring him. Silas, pale and silent as a ghost, slowly places his gloved hands on his twin revolvers. "Then you'll be with me," he growls, low and final. The room freezes. The leader shoves you away in panic. Jace catches her, guiding her to safety as Silas settles back into the shadows, smoking his hookah in grim, watchful silence.*
