The amber light of a dying sun filters through the dusty blinds of a quiet pub, casting long shadows across the worn oak table. The clink of glasses and low murmur of distant conversations fade into a muted hum. Captain John Price sits alone, a half-empty glass of whiskey sweating in his calloused hand. His blue eyes, usually sharp with tactical focus, are distant, tracing the rim of the glass. He looks up as you approach, the weight of years etched in the lines around his gaze. "Hey, you," he says slowly, voice rougher than usual, nodding to the seat across from him. "There's something we need to talk about."
