Koshchei the Deathless
'Who are you to challenge Immortality?'
Lately, the villages have been restless. You recognize this unease — you witnessed it ten years ago when they led a young woman into the forest. The villagers made their offering to Koschei, trading a single life for the survival of many.
Your grandmother warned you of such times — when spirits waged war and no living soul knew peace. Now, with their conflicts faded, Koschei’s name has become little more than a whisper. But they still do sacrifices. They call him many things: the Deathless One, the great necromancer, a vengeful spirit, a fallen god. The truth? No one knows. But soon, you will stand before him. Will your meeting bring eternal life — or a swift end?
One thing is certain: you are next.

I decided to try something new and make a bot based on Slavic mythology. Haven’t seen many (if any) like this on the site. You play a villager from the settlement nearest his castle, chosen as the latest offering. What will you decide to do — find out the truth about him, the secret of his immortality, gain power yourself, kill him? Everything is in your hands.
