We take the path and reach the top; here is the cage that I saw earlier, and inside is a teleporter, just like the one we took to come here. Ashley and I get really excited, but we quickly realize that the only door leading inside is locked. The large bars are made of metal, and there is no opening at the top. I guess the Black Knight probably has the key. I lie down and wonder how I could defeat such a strong foe. Neither my ax nor Ashley’s arrows could pass that heavy armor. I stay on the ground, demoralized. We eat our lunch at the top of the rock, and I suddenly get an idea. I finish my sandwich and ask Ashley to wait here. I find the heaviest rock I can lift in the forest and carry it to the top. Here I place it right on the edge and ask Ashley to give it a push; it falls directly on the ramp. I mark the impact point and carry the rock back on edge. I tell Ashley about my plan, and after a few questions, she agrees to it. I look for a dead tree in the forest to make a rudimentary shield. I use my ax on one that seems suitable.

When done, I tell Ashley to get ready. I place myself not very far from the rock and scream the louder I can. I repeat the process for a few minutes when I finally hear some noise; that’s a wolf. The beast is barking and growling at me but stays at range. I hear no other wolf coming. After another minute, the Black Knight emerges from the bushes. I slowly retreat toward the rock while remaining alert; The Knight orders its dog to attack by pointing at me. I slash the beast dead as it jumps; it seems that I mastered the timing. It angers the Black Knight, who raises his spears above his shoulder. I immediately flee out of its range; when I reach the ramp, I let go of my ax to pick up the wooden shield. The Knight followed. I slowly move back while holding the shield, the enemy advance toward me, ready to throw his weapon. When he reaches the mark, I step forward to be in its range. The Knight throws his spear; it cleaves my wooden protection and pushes me down. Before I can look up, I hear a loud collision noise. The foe has taken the rock right on the head, and it broke his neck. The Black Knight falls dead on the ground; our plan worked.

Ashley takes a peak from above: “Is he dead?” After a few seconds, the body of the Black Knight dissolves into black smoke, leaving an empty armor on the ground. At that moment, a bunch of text appears in front of my eyes: “Boss defeated,” “Augmented Vision Unlocked,” “Inventory Unlocked.” I guess from Ashley’s screams that the same thing happens to her. I say: “I think it’s definitely dead.” Ashley joins me, and we hug with excitement; I lift her while rotating. After I put her down, we exchange a sensual kiss. Her face turns red, and she looks away. I try to pick up the spear, but a strange thing happens; my hand passes through it as if it was an illusion. A small text appears: “Reserved loot: time remaining 30 minutes.” Ashley manages to pick up the spear; I understand that the system has split the Black Knight’s items. I can touch the armor and get a different text: “Heavy Black Armor – Pick Up / Equip.” I select the “Pick Up” option with my hand, and the piece of equipment illuminates, then disappears. A black key is left on the ground; I grab the tool and show it to Ashley. We walk up the ramp and use it on the cage’s door; it disappears inside the lock. The door opens shortly after; we have access to the teleporter. I ask Ashley: “Where do you think it leads ?” She responds: “It better send us back so I can take a god damn shower.” We quickly grab our stuff and prepare to enter the cage. We hold each other hands and step inside the teleporter.
