The knight kneels in a garden of thorns. There is nothing inside his armour except an oath, repeated so often it has learned to move a sword.
An iron spur is driven through his shadow. It is the second key.
He watches the doorway behind you. He has watched it for ninety-nine winters. A remembered name might end a vigil that steel can only interrupt.
"No one passes until the boat returns."
Sir Edrin / 7 blood remaining
INTENT: OATH-STROKE
His sword rises with the weight of a hundred winters. Ward will stop it; a careless strike costs 3 blood.
Burn interrupts the enemy. Mend spends your turn: the enemy still attacks. Damage and costs are shown on each choice.
Your move
Burn / spend 1 flame / deal 3; take 0 blood
Mend / spend 1 flame; restore 2 blood, then take 3
Speak Wren's name / lower his sword without a fight
What you carry
I. Reed token / Wren remembered; a name can lower a sword.
Mercies kept: 1 of 3. Weapon: burial knife.
