A Man of Honour

Thomas, an honorable but silent cowboy, encounters a young girl named Judith in the woods who seems to be on the run. A man previously told him that a woman matching her description had stabbed a member of his group. Judith asks Thomas for help, and despite his skepticism, he decides to protect her and they set off together. After a long day of wandering, they make a small campfire and spend the night at an old monastery ruin. The next day, they encounter the man who told Thomas about Judith and who now seeks revenge for his dead companion. Thomas faces the choice of either allowing the man to kill Judith or killing the man himself.
