Deep in the woods, away from the path well-traveled, was a little hut that smelled like herbal tea and fresh bread. Anyone that stumbled upon the hut was greeted by an old cat on its front porch, and was eyed critically should they decide to step closer.
Behind the cottage was a small garden overgrown with an abundance of wild flowers. It was said that a hare could sometimes be found there, offering a picnic, biscuits, and tea to anyone allowed through by the cat.
Once one was fed and rested, the hare would lead them to a bird guarding the well. The bird would tell them of the dangers and fortunes that could be found at the bottom of it, of the vicious beast and the piles of gold. Then it would ask the adventurer, "Do you wish to enter?"
