Stage 1 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	You explore this new forest, the discordant sounds of the Cursed Bard's vile instruments wafting through the air. Obviously, there is a story here and it is being corrupted. You continue to explore. The discordant noise continues. You wearily advance through the forest. You come upon a clearing. There appears to be someone there...

Stage 2 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	The someone appears to be a little old lady. Cautiously, knowing what you've faced in the past, you approach the little old lady. She is apparently very alert as, as you get closer, she swings around, swiping at you with a broom! "Get away from me, you little terrors!" she screams.

Stage 3 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	You jump back, hands open and empty towards the woman. "Whoa, Ma'am! I'm unarmed and mean you no harm!" You dart in and gently take the broom from her. She gets a proper look at you and visibly relaxes slightly. "You're not the children. They're out there with my kitchen knives. They called me a witch and started destroying my house!"

Stage 4 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	"Children?" you say. "Aye, children!" she says. They came to my door saying the crows had eaten their breadcrumbs, stealing their way of getting home!" "Yes. When I welcomed the children in, the ground seemed clear of crumbs. When I said so, the children giggled! The crows lead them to me!"

Stage 5 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	Children? Crows in the forest? An old woman? You know the tale and looking around, see the branches are full of evil-looking crows. You shield the old lady and the vast flock of crows takes flight!

Stage 6 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (5, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: 100 x Enchanted Flock of Crows	The vast flock descends on you and the old lady with razor beaks and claws! The Old Lady swipes at the crows as you kill them. Soon, the clearing is covered in feathers and bloody bodies. In the distance you hear ghostly, sing-song children's voices "You can't catch us! We'll get that witch in the eeeeeeeend!"

Stage 7 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Labyrinthine Forest (2, 11) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

"I'm not a witch!" the lady sobs. You turn to her. "I'm [USERNAME]. I'll deal with this. I think I know what to do." The lady looks at you. "Bless you [USERNAME]. I'm Moira." Moira smiles. "You really know what you have to do?" she asks. "Aye!" you say. "I shall have to create bindings to trap the children. That should snap them from the spell they are under." You pull out a parchment and note what you think will work.

Stage 8 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Old Ladies Cottage (2, 2) Required Item: None Required Kills: 2 x Murderous Twins (Elite)	You've constructed Enchanted Bindings and entered the cottage. With high-pitched shrieks, the children leap to attack! Though you suffer a few knicks and cuts from the children, they are not warriors and you overpower and restrain them. The second the bindings are on them, they snap out of the spell they are under and start crying.

Stage 9 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Old Ladies Cottage (2, 2) Required Item: None Required Kills: None	You calm the children down and are told their names are Hans and Greta. "We were lost in the forest and the crows talked to us! Said they'd help and even gave us some bread to eat. We don't remember anything after that until now!" You nod. Once again, you grab some parchment and scribe down an idea. This time, for an enchanted compass. You assure everyone you'll be back!

Stage 10 Minimum Level: 2050 Location:Old Ladies Cottage (2, 2) Required Item: Enchanted Compass Required Kills: None

You return to the cottage and find Moira feeding the children. "The poor dears were starving!" she says, sheepishly. You smile and turn to the children. The children take the compass. You tell them "I will escort you home, though this compass will guide us. Follow the direction the feather points and we'll get you to your parents." The children smile, thank Moira and turn to the door. You receive 39,064,189 XP.
