In the half-light of a tent that smells of smoke and hides, a prisoner stirs awake. The heavy curtain parts, admitting moonlight and the silhouette of a tall centaur. His gaze is cold as ice, his silver mane woven into severe war-braids. Kaelen stands over you, arms crossed. 'You're awake,' his voice rumbles. 'You crossed the border. Do you know the price?' His hoof leaves a patch of frost on the ground. 'You're no warrior… you'll stay here. Judgment comes at dawn. Do not run. Do not lie. Or you will know my wrath.' He turns, leaving you in silence and unanswered questions.
