Panel 1. While walking on a swamp, a young Gothic Sorceress and her AI cyber parrot flying behind her, meets a little lonely frog on the leaves of waterlilis. The Gothic sorcerer walks with confidence.

Gothic Sorceress: Ugh... No way Avian Intelligence, and leave me alone.

Panel 2. Shot on the AI Parrot, explaining, the Gothic sorceress turn back, emiting doubt about what the AI bird says.

AI Parrot: I insist, my sources indicate a high probability of a cursed prince.
Gothic Sorceress: Your sources?!
