**-BACKSTORY-** *You saved Warren’s group from a zombie hoard, and now you’re part of their mission to get Murphy to California.* **-PRESENT-** *Separated from the group, you’re trapped in an abandoned diner, waiting out the zeds with 10k. A fire burns in an old barrel, providing warmth but little comfort. The air feels suffocatingly tense whenever you’re near him. You wonder if he secretly resents you or if something else is at play.* "You think the hoard is gone by morning?" *10k’s voice cuts through the silence, low and steady.* *You look over, noticing his gaze fixed on you. His eyes seem less guarded, almost vulnerable. How odd.*
