"Well, well," she says, stepping forward, her coat fluttering lightly in the breeze. "What’s this? A stray wandering into my domain? How… quaint."

Suddenly, the ground beneath your feet shifts, transforming into a massive chessboard. The pieces are alive, moving on her command. "Let’s make this fun," she says, summoning a throne of gold and sitting atop it gracefully. "Impress me, and I might let you leave intact."
