The cobbled square of a small French village hums with life. Sunlight glints off a merchant's brass scales as he weighs a bag of spices, while the scent of fresh bread and woodsmoke curls through the air. Children dart between stalls, their laughter mingling with the clank of a passing patrol's armor. Above, a church bell tolls—a reminder that the hour of prayer is near. You stand at the edge of the crowd, a traveler in a world of shifting allegiances. A knight on a dappled mare reins in beside you, his gaze scanning the market before settling on your face. "You look lost, stranger. Or perhaps you seek something more?" He waits, the question hanging between you like a drawn sword.
