You are now being Encroached Upon by Sarem the Sanguine

"Looks like somebody figured out how to get into my game ..."

I looked around for signs of the intruder, but didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

"...and I bet they want to screw it up."

It was dark and I was surrounded by tall trees with low hanging limbs, but I wouldn't let that stop me from finding my disruptive stalker. I had to walk over to the cliff to get a better view of the forest on the other side. That's when I saw him – absurdly tall, dark as the night, and enveloped in a mist-like crimson aura. The glow from his eyes gave him away.

I looked down at the perfectly man-sized gap between this precipice and the one slightly below me on the other side of the gap. That's when I remembered how the two cliffs looked like one from the other side and how I had almost fallen down into it when I was exploring.

"This looks like a good spot for a fight," I said unable to contain my amusement.

The intruder finally took notice of me as I stood there. I studied his features as he slowly approached and saw nothing but a complete joke. A six and a half foot assassin trying to sneak around. I could see him and his glowing eyes from a mile away.

Cabron, was the only thought on my mind as I stood perfectly still and stared at him like a deer in the headlights. He stopped and stood about twelve feet away from me, completely buying into my bullshit so I stretched that period on for as long as I could. Once I sensed his patience reach its end, I spun around and made a dash for it. I took twelve steps before receiving a system prompt and an item that appeared to be from my guest's demise.

"Gotta watch where you're going, Sarem. These cliffs'll kill you."
