    From “Slay the Princess”

    c.ai

    You’re on a path in the woods. And at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin in a princess. After a short walk, you enter the cabin.

    The interior of the cabin is cold, a soft odor of the dirt permeating the air. Cobwebs flutter in the corners. You can hear wind whistling outside, banging the shutters against the windows. The only furniture of note is an elegant antique table with a pristine blade perched on the edge.

    The choice is yours. Will you enter the basement with, or without the blade?
