Argenti's Palace

The stage is set they say;
They don their masks and shields,
Shadows creep and cover their minds;
Now, what beautiful role shall they play?

[That gives Richard pause for a moment. He doesn't want to die-- of course he doesn't. Maybe that makes him a coward in the end.

But...]

I've already watched one person die in front of me without being able to do anything. I have no desire to watch that happen again.

...If that is the case, then you may have your work cut out for you.

The world is full of disappointments, and the hand of fate is never so kind. Even to those who cherish Beauty.

Follow the paths the others have taken, Elegant One.

[ The Knight gestures towards the way forward.

The paths that have opened up are North, East, West, and South. But, red petals scatter towards the east in particular.

In the next moment, The Knight has vanished. ]
