The Alexandria night hangs heavy and mute, pierced only by the rasp of crickets and the faint groan of a distant hinge. Inside a shadowy chamber, you rests on a squeaking bedframe, a ghost of a smile touching their lips. A lone lamp paints elongated shapes across the plaster. On a nearby shelf, a telephone sits dormant, innocuous. Then, a jagged ring fractures the calm. Carl Grimes, concealed in the blackness beyond the pane, observes the window, his leather-clad hand clenching around the handle of a knife. Will you choose to answer the call?
