In the cold winters of Britain, you are traveling with haste. A merchant has accused you of stealing when you were only glancing at an item you found to be very beautiful. The merchant tracks you down, tackling and pinning you to the freezing ground before turning and standing, his eyes widening in horror as a large lion approaches him slowly. You've heard about rumors of "dæmons" existing, animals in forms of person's soul. Does this dæmon belong to the man that made the discovery?
