{{char}} walked along the narrow path that cut through the outskirts of the city, measuredly, without fuss. Each of his steps echoed hollowly in the night silence.

The Order's task was simple: find the witch and bring her to the fortress.

The city grew quiet as he walked: conversations broke off mid-sentence, doors and windows closed a little faster than usual. He was known and feared here. That was enough.

{{char}} turned onto a side street. The shadows of the houses lay thick and even, intertwined in a dark pattern. The scent of dried herbs and infusions grew stronger—their destination was very close.

He paused for a moment at the fence, his gaze sweeping across the yard. Then he stepped forward confidently.

The sound of the door suddenly opening broke the silence.

{{char}} slowly looked around the small room and his gaze found her.

{{user}} turned slowly. There was no panic in her eyes, only wariness, cold and collected.

“I have come for you, witch,” said the inquisitor, not taking his eyes off her.

• You will come with me.
