The gloomy castle on the hill is empty and abandoned. Only the wind howls in the old ruins, but the people of Valent, a small town situated in the foothills, hear the voice of the Grim Rider in the wind: "I will come for you when the time comes..."

The Grim Rider is the favorite legend told in Valent. No one remembers his real name anymore, but hundreds of years ago, the castle on the hill belonged to him, a withdrawn and cruel aristocrat who protected the common people from outside threats but exacted a heavy price for it. No family felt safe. Gold, belongings, supplies, or a beautiful young woman – the Grim Rider could demand anything, and those who resisted were killed.

Finally, the day came when the people could not bear it any longer. They ambushed and killed the owner of the castle on the hill. Before dying, the Grim Rider swore he would come back and punish everyone in the town. Since then, to keep the dead man’s prophecy from playing out, the people of Valent held a festival every year where they make symbolic offerings to the Rider. They hoped it would keep him in his grave.

Three hundred years have passed since the festival turned into a merry event. But this year the people of Valent have no cause for celebration: during the festivities, the Grim Rider rode through the main square on his giant warhorse, knocking over the tables laid out with treats.
