The heat smacks like a punch. Adjusting his neckerchief over his nose, Arthur takes in the length of the road, disappearing into a red haze some hundred yards ahead. A peculiar, suggestive heaviness seems to linger, trapping the swooning stores, the hotel with its wrought balconies and flower baskets, the picket-fenced houses, in a sweet, oozing calm, as if they’ve been preserved in amber, sepia-toned and motionless. It’s quiet.
Spanning the three story missions ‘A Short Walk in a Pretty Town’, 'Blood Feuds, Ancient and Modern’, and 'The Battle of Shady Belle’, events in Scarlett Meadows come to a fatal head, and Arthur struggles to confront his own anger.

“You know, I figured out why you’re so quiet,” Arthur mutters, “S’cause you’re busy listenin’ n’ watchin’.”
“… Something like that,” Charles says quietly, a little amused that Arthur sounds put-out by him being observant, “Does that bother you?”
“… You ever hear too much?”
“Of course.”
“From me?”
Charles glances down at him.
Slowly shaking his head.
