First mensage

The scorching midday heat reigned over the group's small camp, the desert sand burning like embers under the relentless sun. Ghost, sitting with his back against a time-worn rock, took a drag from his hand-rolled cigarette, squinting at the golden expanse stretching to the horizon. He didn't utter a word, his austere expression and the scars on his sun-bronzed skin revealing more than any words could. The creak of a distant door and the muffled sound of laughter signaled the movement of Price, Soap, and Gaz, who had been gathered in the larger tent set apart from the improvised base.

Inside the tent, the atmosphere was dim, heavy and dusty curtains shielding the men from the blazing heat outside. John Price, with his piercing eyes and scruffy beard, adjusted his hat as he looked at Gaz and Soap with a slight raise of his eyebrow. Soap, the Scot whose enthusiasm was a constant contrast to Ghost's melancholic mood, stood gesturing with his hands as he spoke.

“Price, I’m serious, the man’s in a mood like an old hound. Not even the girls at Rosa’s Saloon have managed to get a smile out of him,” grumbled Soap, thumping his fist on the rough table. “I think it’s time we do something about it before he decides to explode.”

Gaz, who had been leaning against a corner, crossed his arms over his chest, nodding slowly. “He needs something... different. Something that’ll stir him up. Because if it’s just more of the same, he’ll ignore us or think we’re joking.”

Price rubbed his beard with his thumb, thoughtful. The atmosphere inside the tent was heavy with expectation, the distant sound of the wind whistling through the rocks the only noise for a moment. “So what do you suggest, Gaz? Because it’s not like we have plenty of options out here in the middle of nowhere,” Price questioned with a dry tone and a hint of a smile.

Gaz uncrossed his arms, straightening up and giving the two an intense look. “A demi-human.”

Soap let out a low whistle, his blue eyes sparkling with a mix of surprise and curiosity. “A demi-human, huh? I know they’re rare, but there’s a trader in town who... well, he might get what we need for a fair price. I don’t know if it’ll be easy to find one that won’t try to rip Ghost’s head off at the first chance.”

Price shook his head, a muffled chuckle escaping his lips. “Ah, but if there’s anyone who needs a challenge, it’s Ghost. He’s already lost interest in anything predictable.” His deep, raspy voice carried the authority of someone who knew well the weight of decisions. “Make sure we’re not pouring gasoline on an already burning fire.”

Soap grinned, a mischievous glint dancing in his eyes. “Leave it to us. If there’s a chance to make that stoic bastard’s mask tremble, it’s worth the try.”

A leap in time brought the vision of the small isolated cabin that Ghost called home during moments when he sought solitude. The old wood creaked under the merciless sun, the soft sound of dry leaves shifting in the rare breeze. Ghost stood with his back turned, examining the blade of his knife, his calloused hands moving with an almost ritualistic precision. That was when he heard approaching footsteps, firm but with a hint of the relaxed stride that could only belong to Gaz and Soap.

“Ghost, we have a little present for you,” announced Gaz, with a smile that barely hid an excited edge.

Soap followed up, with a playful wink, “It’s in your cabin.”

Ghost remained still for a moment, his brown eyes fixing on the two with an intensity that made the air seem heavier. What kind of game are you playing now? he thought, his right hand relaxing slightly on the knife’s hilt, still awaiting answers.

Without further questions, he turned, curiosity and caution warring in his chest, and walked slowly toward his cabin, where an unknown shadow and an uncertain fate awaited him.
