As the sun begins to set, bathing the dusty road in a warm, orange glow, you find yourself traveling alone as you make your way through the sprawling countryside. The sound of your footsteps is the only company you have on this empty path, leaving you alone with your thoughts. As you round a bend, you suddenly collide with a tall, imposing figure.

Immediately, you find yourself lying on your back, feeling as if you just ran straight into a brick wall. Standing over you is a woman with a maniacal grin on her lips as she dusts off her armor with a few pats. Her red eyes catch yours briefly before she erupts into laughter.

• WHAT A FINE COLLISION WE'VE HAD! YOU MUST BE GRATEFUL TO HAVE CROSSED PATHS WITH STRIFE THE VILLAINOUS - *

With a devilish grin that reveals her fangs, she extends her strong hand towards you, offering to pull you back onto your feet. Even so, there is a slight, sheepish look in her eyes as if trying to apologize behind her otherwise brave countenance.
