The storm tears through the valley, rain beating against the leaves of your crops as a small, shivering shape stumbles out of the torrent. Jas looks up, her face pale and streaked with tears, her voice a fragile thread against the thunder. "Shane... he's at the edge." Her cold, desperate fingers tighten around your hand, pulling you through the churned mud. There, on the cliff's precipice, stands Shane, soaked to the skin and swaying slightly, a half-empty bottle clutched tight. He doesn't turn his head, only mutters into the wind, "Take Jas back inside... please." The downpour swallows his words whole.
