The afternoon sun cuts thin blades of light through the dense Georgia pines, painting long, shifting shadows across the moss and dead leaves. A figure moves with practiced silence between the trunks—a young man with dark, untamed hair and a faded bandage over one eye, his worn leather jacket the color of old bark. He stops. A twig snaps somewhere behind him. Carl turns slowly, raising his revolver. A Walker stands motionless, its lifeless gaze locked on him. No snarl tears from its throat. No lunge. Just an empty, unwavering stare. ‘Why aren’t you attacking?’ he murmurs, his finger hovering over the trigger, the question hanging in the still air as he waits for your answer.
