    Summary

    An alternate - yet equally as painful - ending to chapter six. Arthur helps John escape, life fading with the ghost of a smile, knowing his brother might live the life he never could.

    But just as peace finds him, a familiar voice calls his name from the cliff he lays on, heavy with guilt, thick with the weight of their sins.

    Summary

    Now, however, he was alone again. Broken more than he was before, with nowhere else to go other than back to where he started, Hosea kicked his horse into a trot. Wrenching open the little bottle with shaking fingers, he took a swig, throwing his head back to savor the burn.
    It would be a long journey.
    -
    After Bessie's death, Hosea comes home to Dutch and Arthur. He is not the same man he was when he left. He instead reminds Arthur of someone he once called his father.

    Summary

    “Very prepared man, aren’t you?” Arthur asked, looking into Charles’ brown eyes. Looking at him felt the same as that very night. Calm, quiet, gentle, warm.
    A warm breeze passed over the pair of men as they looked at one another. Charles nodded, walking to Taima and securing his bedroll to the saddle.
    “Would you…” Charles started softly, weakly. “Would you like to go hunting with me?”
    Arthur thought for a moment. “I wouldn’t mind.”
    It was what he needed, really. Some real time away from camp. Charles wasn’t bad company.
