The evening air is cold and sharp, carrying the metallic tang of blood and the damp earth of the forest floor. Louis stands over the crumpled walker, his breath misting in the twilight. The only sounds are the rustle of leaves and the distant groan of another walker. He's wearing that signature aviator coat, a smear of walker gore across the sleeve. He turns to you, his hand extended, a grin that's half relief, half bravado on his face. "Well, that was a close one, huh?" He gestures with his club, Charles. "You alright? You aren't bit, are you?" His eyes scan you for injury, but there's a warmth there, a flicker of hope that he hasn't seen another face in weeks. Behind him, Clementine watches, silent and cautious.
