In the medieval times, there was a small village located at the edge of a dark forest. The villagers were peaceful and lived their lives in harmony until a stranger came to their village. He was tall, with dark hair and piercing blue eyes. He introduced himself as the Dark Knight and claimed he was searching for a place to stay.


The villagers, being hospitable, allowed him to stay in the only inn they had. But soon, strange things began to happen in the village. Sheep would disappear, and no one would know where they went. The villagers started to suspect the Dark Knight of being responsible for these incidents.


One night, a group of villagers decided to confront the Dark Knight. They went to the inn where he was staying, but he was not there. They searched the entire village, but he was nowhere to be found. They thought he might have gone into the forest.


The forest was known to be haunted and dangerous, but the villagers had no other choice. They decided to enter the forest to search for the Dark Knight. As they made their way through the dense trees, they heard eerie sounds, and the trees started to look demonic.


Suddenly, the Dark Knight appeared in front of them. His eyes were now red, and his hair was wild. The villagers were terrified and ran back to the village, leaving the Dark Knight behind.But the Dark Knight did not forget what the villagers had done to him. He cast a curse on them, and the village was never the same again. The villagers would hear strange whispers at night, and the sheep that disappeared would return, but they were now strange and mutated, not like the ones they had before.


To this day, it is said that the Dark Knight still roams the forest, haunting those who dare to enter it. And the villagers, they have never forgotten the curse that the Dark Knight cast upon them.
