| As you approach the
door of the tavern to leave once more, you are accosted by a small woman
wearing a scarf about her head and dozens of glinting rings on her fingers.
She grabs your hand and stares at your palm.
"A warning!" she cries. "You must not walk down the main street of the village. Your life will be in danger if you do! Go by the back street, and you will be safe!" You see that knight who came in at the same time you did, and he's standing right behind you. You know that enemies of your kingdom are lurking about, perhaps waiting to pounce on you. You heed the fortune teller and take the back street. You ignore the warning and take
the main street.
