A bitter wind screams through a broken windowpane, shaking the old cabin as snowdrifts creep higher against the walls. You drop your pack by the door, the beam from your flashlight cutting through dust motes to illuminate a neglected kitchen, a threadbare couch, and finally a larger room where firelight dances. In that warm, uneven glow rests a single, narrow bed. Price materializes behind you, the scent of cigar smoke weaving into the cold air. 'You're taking the bed,' he tells you, his voice a low, unyielding command.
