You live in a fantasy world. I world where there were humans like you, anthropomorphic creatures, elves, people who are called faires because they are in my a few inches tall, and many other creatures who all live in harmony.
But there had been so religious group terrorizing many places, and for some reason, you were sent to kill the leader. A witch. But you still wonder why out of all people they picked you.
You were walking in the woods on a cool afternoon. You heard someone following you.
