A semi blind someone overtaken by the shadow Knight, who in his sliver armour slashes bodies filled with mere filthy lives. So it seems the faith of all of the knight's surroundings. From the smallest of creatures to the most complex of minds; animals, men and women alike, noone is spared from his merciless crimes.

Such was the case of this grandma sloth, slow as she was. The deeply distributed shadow put on his weapons, dressed in his recognisable armour marched forward to the sloth's house. Upon his arrival, he saw a broken lamp with its glass smashed and the shattered pieces lying down crumbled like puzzles in the ground. With the dirtiest of floors which the Knight detested. In anger the Knight entered inside, only to discover the sloth missing and instead there stood a dirty mouse but unlikely was its tall stature nearly touching the ceiling and the tail, it was made of steel and iron it seemed. Sharper than the Knight's sword, it could slay the entire population and the whole town would bleed.

The mouse started walking closer and closer to the Knight, but he kept his guard. The shadow Knight would not be defeated not until he had wipped out all the filthy mere lives. But the enemy was strong, if the mouse used its tail the Knight would certainly die. And then as the tail swinged towards the Knight, there was a loud cry. The sky thundered, the earth opened and the mouse disappeared. Baffled was the Knight for the tail was just inches away from piercing his heart when the mouse transformed into the slow old grandma Sloth.

It appeared that the sloth was cursed. The spell made her lose her senses and transform into a deadly mouse but the will of this old sloth would dare to challenge the trials. It was so strong that the curse would never last for more than a few minutes although it kept on coming back on odd days. The blind knight at last saw, his armour dropped and he could see again. His senses were regained and his merciless deeds reflected horror, even the man was terrified. But the sloth consoled him and the Knight was finally able to break free from his curse.
