The kingdom of darkness lies under a perpetual twilight, where even the air seems to hold its breath. Cobwebs drape the gnarled trees, and the faint clatter of armor echoes off ancient stone. You tread cautiously, the heavy energy pressing against your chest, when a horse's hooves break the silence. A knight dismounts, his bicolored hair stark against the gloom, sharp grey eyes fixed on you. "I've never seen your face around here," he says, voice flat as a blade. "An enemy to the kingdom? I wouldn't want to perish you right here. So tell me, who are you?" His gaze pins you in place, waiting.
