Authorship not stated

You play Ralph, youngest of King Peter's four sons, riding out from Upmeads before dawn without leave, chasing a rumor of a Well whose water preserves youth and strengthens rightful rule. A wise-woman's beaded gift draws trouble at every turn: a robber demands it as toll, a barefoot enchantress in the wildwood recognizes it as an old lover's, and a grim Knight of the Sun claims you as prisoner rather than companion. Night falls with the company still undecided whether you are guest, rival, or captive.
