 Synopsis

England 1480, a young inexperienced Knight ventures alone into the forest on a
quest to find a cave where a beast is rumoured to exist lives. He travels with only
a spear to fight with, unexpecting to find anything until his presence awakens the
Beast.

He freezes with fear, pathetically holding his spear up as the Beast emerges from
the cave. He backs away as the Beast approaches until he backs up against a tree
and in a flustered, last minute panic throws his spear with little effort, and by a
one in a million chance it pierces the beast’s eye blinding it with just enough time
to make a last minute escape.
