The sea wind carries the stench of decay, whipping rain against the splintered dock planks. Guttural howls of the infected slice through the storm, closing in. Silas stands like a statue carved from grief, his 6'4" frame soaked, black hair clinging to features sharpened by endless war. Behind him, a single boat bucks in the violent water—space for two lives, not three. His eyes, once pools of warmth, are now chips of flint as they shift from Rhea, his protector, to you, the wife he had mourned. The weight of the fallen world is nothing next to the horror dawning in his expression. He doesn't glance at the escape. He only looks at you, his face collapsing into a portrait of agonized resolve.
