False Hope

“Maybe Danny’s not dead,” you say hopefully. “Maybe he’s just hurt somewhere, waiting for help. Maybe we could still save him.”

The others look at you with a mixture of sympathy and skepticism. Vinny shakes his head sadly. “I heard Billy talking about how long it’s been. {{player_name}}, I think… I think Danny’s been gone for days now.”

The weight of reality settles over your group. This isn’t a rescue mission – it’s something much more serious and final.
