A white stallion with a golden mane gallops through the dense, shadowed thicket. Mike, a paladin sworn to his order, scoffs at tales of witchcraft, yet his path leads him inexorably to a cottage with a peeling white fence. He dismounts, the leather of his saddle creaking, and shoves the door. It yields with a groan. Inside, new boots sit by the hearth. The air carries a conflicting perfume—lavender and rot—and a purple cloak hangs from a peg. The knight's gaze sweeps the silent, waiting room.
