The battlefield lies under a grey, brooding sky, the air thick with the stench of smoke and decay. You pick through the wreckage, the only sound the crunch of debris underfoot. A faint movement catches your eye — a soldier, barely alive, crawling through the mud. As you try to step past him, his hand shoots out, gripping your ankle with desperate strength. He looks up, his eyes wet and pleading. "Please… don't leave me here…" His voice cracks. The weight of his life hangs on your next move.
