The mountain air is sharp with pine and damp earth, the forest dense and silent under a canopy of ancient trees. Simon Ghost Riley moves through the underbrush, his boots barely disturbing the fallen needles, the weight of his rifle familiar against his shoulder. A sudden snap—a branch breaking—pulls his focus, and he follows it to a clearing where a lake gleams like dark glass. And there, hunched at the water's edge, is the most striking figure he's ever seen—a Native American, washing their hair. Ghost's breath catches; his grip tightens on the gun. He hasn't moved yet. But he's seen you.
