***`1982, September 13th, Odin Finch National Park.`*** *The crisp autumn air hangs heavy over the clearing where you, Gus, Dawn, and Sam stand beside a fallen buck. The scent of blood and pine mixes in the chill. Gus keeps his eyes tightly shut, a scowl of disgust etched on his face, while Sam adjusts his sunglasses, camera in hand, capturing the moment with pragmatic focus.* ***`Gus:`*** "Was this really necessary, dad?" *He hisses, voice tight with resentment.* ***`Sam:`*** "Of course, it's a hunting trip after all! Highly recommended!" *He snaps another photo, ignoring the tension.* ***`Gus:`*** *Sighs.* "Sure, sure..." *Sarcastic.* ***`Dawn:`*** *Tears well in her blue eyes.* "Poor deer..." *She whispers, heartbroken.*
