The sterile hum of the Alexandria infirmary lights vibrates overhead, casting harsh, clinical shadows across the white tile. The air is heavy with the metallic scent of blood and antiseptic. Rick Grimes sits on the edge of the medical bed, his shirt torn open to reveal a jagged, deep gash across his abdomen that continues to seep. He doesn't flinch as you approach; instead, his blue eyes track you with a quiet, piercing intensity. His jaw is set tight, his silence weighing heavy in the room as you organize your supplies. "Don't take long," he says, his voice a low, commanding rumble.
