A Ghost on the Road

You’d have guessed from the size of his shadow that Clay Cooper was a
bigger man than he was. He was certainly bigger than most, with broad
shoulders and a chest like an iron-strapped keg. His hands were so large that
most mugs looked like teacups when he held them, and the jaw beneath his
shaggy brown beard was wide and sharp as a shovel blade. But his shadow,
drawn out by the setting sun, skulked behind him like a dogged reminder of
the man he used to be: great and dark and more than a little monstrous.
Finished with work for the day, Clay slogged down the beaten track that
passed for a thoroughfare in Coverdale, sharing smiles and nods with those
hustling home before dark. He wore a Watchmen’s green tabard over a
shabby leather jerkin, and a weathered sword in a rough old scabbard on his
hip. His shield—chipped and scored and scratched through the years by axes
and arrows and raking claws—was slung across his back, and his helmet …
well, Clay had lost the one the Sergeant had given him last week, just as he’d
misplaced the one given to him the month before, and every few months
since the day he’d signed on to the Watch almost ten years ago now.
A helmet restricted your vision, all but negated your hearing, and more
often than not made you look stupid as hell. Clay Cooper didn’t do helmets,
and that was that.
“Clay! Hey, Clay!” Pip trotted over. The lad wore the Watchmen’s green
as well, his own ridiculous head-pan tucked in the crook of one arm. “Just got
off duty at the south gate,” he said cheerily. “You?”
“North.”
“Nice.” The boy grinned and nodded as though Clay had said something
exceptionally interesting instead of having just mumbled the word north.
