Video - Elise's Encounter: The Witch's Thorny Trap

The wind howled through the gnarled trees as Elise stumbled upon an ancient cabin. She pushed open the creaking door to find an old woman stirring a cauldron. The witch's eyes glowed a sickly green. "Welcome, dear," she rasped, her voice like cracking bones. Elise tried to flee, but roots erupted from the floor, ensnaring her ankles. The witch grinned, revealing jagged teeth. "I've waited centuries for fresh blood." The room darkened, and Elise's screams echoed into the abyss. Morning sunlight revealed an empty hut, save for Elise’s shoes, now filled with soil and sprouting thorny vines.
