In a certain kingdom, there lived a Queen who feared growing old.

One day, the Queen secretly summoned a knight and commanded him thus:

"In the depths of the forest, there is a witch who crafts a rejuvenating elixir. Bring that medicine back to me."

Though the knight loathed witches, he could not defy the Queen's orders.

And so, the knight set out alone on a journey into the deep forest.

But the forest was a den of terrifying monsters.

Exhausted from the long journey, the knight suffered a deep wound from a monster's attack during a single moment of carelessness.

"...What... a disgrace..."

The knight dropped his sword and collapsed onto the cold earth.

Before long, from beyond his fading consciousness, he heard the sound of someone's footsteps.

—The witch is you.
