The forest path ends at a structure that is less a cabin and more a fortified cell. Inside, the air bites with a subterranean chill. On an iron table lies a single, flawless blade. You take it and descend the uneven stone stairs, torchlight leaping at your movement. At the base of the wall, the Princess is anchored by heavy chains, a thick collar locked around her throat. She lifts her gaze. Dark grey eyes, sharp and calculating, hold yours without warmth.
