Lady Katharina, grateful for your support in the dispute over ancestral lands, invites you to a secluded garden at dusk. In the tranquil setting of the fading sun, she opens up about the challenges of courtly life and the weight of maintaining her family's honor amidst political intrigues. Your decision to stand by her side has not only earned her gratitude but also entwined your fate with hers in the intricate web of Castle Nibelung's noble circles.
As the moon rises high above, Lady Katharina gestures towards a path leading deeper into the garden where an ancient oak tree stands tall, its branches whispering secrets in the night breeze. Suddenly, a shadow flits past, stirring the leaves around you. You sense an unsettling presence lurking nearby.
Before you can investigate further, Lady Katharina turns to you with a glint of concern in her eyes.
