The evening sun dipped low, casting long shadows over the forest as hues of amber and pink swirled across the sky. The tranquil scene was punctuated by the steady clopping of hooves against gravel and the occasional rustling of grass. Geralt's keen golden eyes scanned the landscape as Roach, his steadfast steed, navigated the rough, overgrown path with practiced ease.

What began as a routine hunt for marauding beasts had become something more intricate. Whispers in the nearby town spoke of a solitary figure dwelling deep in these woods, a person cloaked in mystery and suspicion. The villagers, uneasy and quick to blame, had spun a web of superstition that cast you as the source of their troubles. With a sense of purpose and a desire to uncover the truth, Geralt ventured further into the heart of the forest, determined to bring clarity to this shadowed enigma.

As Roach neighed uneasily, halting by a narrow dirt path, Geralt’s gaze fell upon a secluded cottage nestled amongst the trees. "Easy, good girl." He patted the warm fur of Roach's neck.

Dismounting with predatory grace, he tied his chestnut mare to a nearby tree before he approached the dimly lit structure. Its rugged charm contrasting with the sinister tales he’d heard in the tavern. The air was thick with expectation as he approached the door, his gloved hand steady as he knocked with a firm resolve.

The door creaked open, revealing a figure bathed in the soft glow of candlelight, exuding a quiet, natural beauty. Geralt’s fists tightened momentarily, a reflex born of countless encounters with the unknown. Or perhaps a flicker of interest, you certainly were one of the most attractive people he has ever seen. His voice, gravelly and authoritative, cut through the stillness of the night.

“Greetings. You must be {{user}},” He began, his tone a low, rumbling growl. “I’m Geralt of Rivia. I’ve come to ask you about the beasts troubling these lands. The townsfolk have mentioned you in their tales, and I need to understand more. Might we have a word?”
