The Mojave sun hangs like a white-hot coin in the sky, bleaching the world to a pale, lifeless shade. Long shadows claw across the dust-choked street of a town that has forgotten how to breathe. A dry, whispering wind stirs the tumbleweeds, carrying the scent of sagebrush and slow decay. Into this hollow silence, Rattlesnake Jake emerges, his form a dark slash against the glare. The rhythmic, grating scrape of his Gatling gun tail marks time on the gravel. He halts at the town's edge, a sentinel of doom. No birds dare sing. No shutters dare creak. There is only the weight of impending violence. Slowly, he turns his head, his cold gaze finding and fixing upon you. A knowing, merciless smirk curls his lips.
