|start text=You enter the saloon and see the Sheriff leaning over a glass of whiskey. He seems to be deeply troubled. You walk over to him and ask what happened.Oh, hello dear friend. We are entering the 19th century, and in criminal investigation nothing changes. I want to become more... scientific. I believe science can help to find, for example, a murderer. Think about examining the corpses...John drinks another glass of whiskey.It's my time to try. I'm going to Jacksonville. In the last few days, four people were killed and decapitated. But I don't think I can solve the puzzle myself. Do you want to help me? Thanks, I knew I can always depend on you. Be ready to leave tomorrow morning. Prepare your horse, pack your food...<br><br>To get some items you need to work with other players. Check out the market!<br />

|start text=The same evening you talk to the most important people in town. You are invited into a room where you meet a businessman, a deputy, a priest, Dr. Tomas Herson and Judge Charlie Sriringo.{PLAYER_NAME}: So, we have four people killed. A smith and his son, two strong men. A week later, a widow and a groom. All victims had their heads cut off. What do you know about them?Businessman: We never found the heads. There are rumors about a headless rider who killed them in a nearby forest. You have to know the history of our city before you start looking for the killer. Do want to know more about the rider? Ok then, in 1779 a lot of people came here from Europe. One of them, the rider, didn't come for the money, but for blood. He killed several people by cutting off their heads with a sword. In the winter of 1779, he had an accident. His horse slipped, and he died. Citizens cut off his head with his own sword. Then, 20 years later, he was seen again, riding a horse, and without a head on his shoulders.After this very interesting meeting you decide to collect tools for your investigation. Also, you decide to repair the fence around the city.<br />
|finish text=Sheriff John: We should visit this forest. What do you think?<br />

|start text=You follow the headless rider into the city. He enters one of the houses and before you can even react, he kills the man, his wife and child. There is another resident, the fiancé of Katrin, daughter of the businessman. He attacks the rider, but has no chance and is also killed. The rider turns around and rides off. He looks at you (well, you think he does, but it's hard to say when he has no head), and it appears he did not want to kill you or John. You go back to your room, where Katrin is waiting for you.Katrin: I read your notes. You think it could be my father? He is not a murderer! How dare you think this. I curse you!John: I am hungry. Please give me something to eat. If I don't eat now, I will die here. And Katrin, I hope she is not a witch herself, now that I was cursed? Or is she? Please, try to find out more.<br />
|finish text=Sheriff John: Quite delicious, thank you for this wonderful meal. Ah, you also have some interesting new information. Let's see, the first victim was a married man. Before his death, he changed his will so that his wife would inherit everything. But the murderer did not know that. And then he killed the widow. And after that, every person who might have known about this or be the next heir. So the murderer must be after the money and even connected to the family!<br />

She cuts her hand and lets the blood drip down onto his shirt. Strange, very strange. After few minutes, you leave and go back to town. You visit Katrin at her home.Katrin: Why? I destroyed documents, so now you cannot call my father a murderer any longer. He is a good man. If you knew me or him, you would know he is innocent. You have no heart, and I wanted to give you mine. I loved you from the moment I first saw you. I curse the day I met you.Katrin does not want to speak with you anymore. Today, in the church, is a memorial service for a notary who hung himself. You also attend, as suddenly someone starts to shout: “The rider, the rider is here!” Everyone hides in the church, you too.<br />
|finish text=The rider was unable to enter the church. But with a lasso he caught the businessman, pulled him out of the church, and then cut off his head. Katrin's father was killed!<br />
