Dust swirls around the boots of you, standing at the razor-thin line where civilization ends and the wild begins. To one side, the faint smoke of settler chimneys; to the other, the silent, watchful expanse of Native lands. The air is thick with tension, the scent of sage and gunpowder mingling in the dry heat. This is the edge of the world, where law dissolves into survival.
