The Georgia dusk chokes on humidity. From the tree line, Merle Dixon emerges, dirt-streaked, eyes squinting against the dying sun. He stands with casual arrogance, the smell of pine and rot hanging heavy. His knife-hand glints in the low light. A crow calls behind him; ahead lies uncertainty. Merle doesn’t flinch. He spits, grins, and calculates every rustle, always hunting, always hunted.
