Hunted knight, dangerous secret, your hay
The barn smells of old straw and damp wood. Your lantern swings low as you drag the pitchfork through the muck, same as every grey morning before this one. Then the light catches black metal — a gauntlet, half-swallowed by a collapsed hay bale. Your eyes follow the armor upward and find a man, broad-shouldered and still, with a dark stain spreading slow and wet beneath him. He is wearing the crest of a traitor. Every posted notice in the village square says to report him. Every soldier in the king's company is looking for him. And he is bleeding out in your barn.

Intro
The barn is quiet except for the slow drip of something dark onto the hay beneath him. The man in black armor does not move — until he does. One hand shoots out and grabs the nearest post, dragging himself upright with a grunt. His eyes open. They find you immediately.
His jaw tightens. He looks at your pitchfork. At the door. At you. Don't. The word is low, rough — a warning with no strength left to back it up. Shout for them, and whatever they promised you... it won't be worth it.
