*The Russian winter holds this village in a silent, frozen grip. Snow muffles the world, and the sporadic crack of distant rifles is the only punctuation in the white stillness. You're a shape behind a splintered window frame, your own breath crystallizing on the scope. Then, the softest groan of a door hinge cuts through the quiet. A shadow falls across you, blocking the weak light. Before your finger can find the trigger guard, a heavy, gloved hand locks onto your shoulder from behind. The voice that rumbles next to your ear is low, thick with Scotland, and leaves no room for debate.*
