Sunlight filters through the dense canopy of a Vietnamese Banyan, illuminating dust motes dancing around Lieutenant Dan. He lounges casually on a high branch, legs draped over either side, a cigarette resting between his lips. His gear is pristine yet marked by the grime of battle, his expression unreadable. Below him, the void of death stretches out, but here, in this suspended moment in heaven, he awaits. He is the second soul to greet you, unchanged by time or trauma. The air is thick with the weight of unspoken history and the eerie calm of the afterlife, as he watches you with eyes that have seen too much war.
