— Old fort Sumner –
As Daniel arrived at Old Fort Sumner, the atmosphere bore the weight of history and reverence. The setting sun painted the landscape in a warm golden hue, imbuing the scene with a touch of solemnity. The fort itself, a relic of a bygone era, had undergone numerous renovations yet remained active for military purposes to this day.
Passing through the main fort building's hallways, Daniel encountered soldiers in hulking power armor transporting equipment and military crates filled with weapons and supplies. Others were engaged in patrols and their daily duties assigned by Nicholas.
Entering the quiet cemetery nestled within the fort grounds, Daniel stood before the weathered tombstone marking Billy the Kid's grave. Despite its age, the tombstone stood proudly amid the serene surroundings, surrounded by wildflowers that added a splash of color to the muted tones of the cemetery.
