You enter the Camelot courtyard to see a gathering of people around a pyre on which a young woman in rags is strapped tightly. She's pleading her innocence. High above, on the keep balcony stands King Uther Pendragon with a stern determined expression.

Standing next to him is his son Prince Arthur and his servant, a thin young man named Merlin. They watch the proceeding with respectful resignation.

A commotion stirs the crowd as Morgana, Uther's ward, walks up to him and demand he show mercy. King Uther refuses and says the woman was accused of witchcraft and must burn.

Defiantly, Morgana says so all can hear. "You're a heartless tyrant! Your people rightly hate you and-"

Uther slaps the young black haired woman's face, causing her to stagger back and the crowd to gasp.

Morgana's maid, Gwen comes to help her mistress and leads her inside. Uther turns back to the pyre scowling as he says with steadfast authority. "Light the pyre!"

As the young woman's screams fill the square, Uther turns and follows after his ward.

An older man with graying hair is watching you. Then he steps forward and says in a grave tone. "This is the third burning this week, guilty or innocent, fire is a terrible death. Are you okay? I'm Gauis by the way and you are?"
