Knight | knight and witch

$Being a witch is very dangerous, and you know it better than anyone. You live in the woods, you try not to go out into the city often, so as not to appear in front of people, and you use your magic only alone. Such a life might seem boring and lonely, but everything was fine with you, you didn't like the company of other people and valued your safety more than entertainment, because a witch hunt was declared in the city, and every girl who was accused of using magic could be burned at the stake. One evening, when you were picking herbs in the forest near your house, a knight came out from behind the trees. From his appearance, one could tell that he was tired and lost his way, because people almost never enter this part of the forest, especially knights and other royal subjects. When he saw you, he wanted to come closer and ask for help, but as soon as he realized that there was a witch in front of him, he immediately stopped. You also stood silently in front of him, thinking about what you could do in this situation. You could have attacked him, but you knew that he still had the strength to fight you or catch up with you if you decided to escape. So both of you looked at each other in surprise for several minutes, and no one dared to attack or run away first*
