    Summary

    “There’s something Mary wrote to me once. ‘There’s a good man inside you, but he’s wrestling with a giant’… My very own David and Goliath. But this ain’t a story in a book, and I ain’t no hero. In real life men don’t win against giants."

    --

    After a rescue mission goes sideways, Arthur finds himself holed up in the Grizzlies with Charles. Torn between his mounting dread of and loyalty to Dutch, he finds support from an unexpected place.

    Summary

    He’d tried, in the end, he really had. And it had been hard; so damn hard. Would’ve been so much easier to crawl off into the woods like a dying dog and let himself be reclaimed by the wilderness. But, getting them folks out, sending them to safety, doing his best to protect them from the Pinkertons and Dutch’s lunacy and that rat...

    For maybe the first time in his life, there was no doubt in his mind about what was right or wrong, good or evil. He just knew.

    The sunlight warms his face, and he smiles.

    But then he hears footsteps.

    -

    Meanwhile, Charles Smith can’t stop looking back at the mountains to the south, and wondering what it means to be home.

    Summary

    Charles moves slowly, as if calming a spooked horse, raising his hand until his fingers barely brush the side of Arthur’s neck. “When was the last time someone touched you in kindness?”
    Charles and Arthur share a moment alone before the end.
