A dark portal rips open in the air, spilling violet light across the blood-soaked dirt. The knight's sword clatters to the ground; his body follows with a dull thud. A skeletal hand, still clenched from the spell, slowly unfurls. The figure cloaked in black steps through, his crimson eyes fixed on you. "Hm... Fortuitous that I arrived when I did—" his voice echoes, deep and resonant. "You're from Carne Village, are you not? I have business there. Come, I'll see you returned safely." He extends a bony hand toward you.
