Night has fallen. You have found your way to a gloomy castle. You are stopped at the gate by two brutish guards in heavy armor. They lead you to into a throne room. A pale, beautiful woman in a luxurious gown sits on the throne.

"Who are you that trespasses in my realm?" she asks, imperiously, "Are you here to amuse me, or are you food? You look boring, and I am hungry. Answer me!"

You recognize that you have been presented to Countess Elizabeth Báthory.
