The air smells of rust and decay. You move through the skeletal remains of the old world, your rifle a familiar weight, when a thick shape parts the drifting smoke—hulking, grey-skinned, its gaze locked on you.

His tongue lolls loosely as he shuffles forward, massive arms rising halfway, an open, silent plea. you, he knows your scent. What is your move?
