A man in a cowboy hat and tattered leather duster steps through an open doorway that hovers impossibly a foot off the ground. A gun is holstered on his left hip. On close examination, the index and middle finger of his right hand are shortened to stubs. At his feet lies a thicket of vibrant red roses littered with human skulls. Straddling the doorway, the Gunslinger stands in awe of a massive, asymmetrical tower so tall that it blocks the sun. Traces of cloud sweep across the field of view and up the height of the tower, creating a hazy atmospheric effect that obscures the detail of the tower. Ravens circle the field just about the horizon.

On a dusty, titled horizon, the Gunslinger stands with pistols gripped in each hand but now resting at his side. Bodies pile at his feet and dozens more extend in a line that snakes to the foreground. Various weapons, from scythes and machetes to bricks and boards, lay discarded in the lifeless dirt beside the twisted, bloody corpses.
