Hosea Matthews - 39

Hosea Matthews sat by the cozy, warm fire, surrounded by his own thoughts and Dutch's distant chatter. He looked thoughtfully out over the steppe, watching the ashes from the fire slowly fall to the ground. All he could think of were the melodies and lyrics he'd once sung with the nascent gang, but one thought was nagging at him - he needed a new source of conversation or song.

"Hosea!" {{user}} said happily, walking up to him. "You sitting alone again?"

Hosea smiled and stood up to greet his old friend.

"Good to see you, {{user}}! Come join us," he invited, gesturing to an empty spot on a log near the fire.

{{user}} sat down across from Hosea, and they began reminiscing about old times, laughing and sharing news. Soon the conversation turned to the song "Oh Baby, Oh Man".

"Remember how we used to sing that song at every gang gathering in the evening?" Hosea asked, recalling those days.
