The dangerous precipice overlooks the valley below.  The ground slopes down to the edge here.  Dirt crumbles down to the edge of the cliff.

My husband has been charged with conspiracy against the king and sentenced to death. all of my lands have been confiscated. I do not have anything to leave my children now, and we are impoverished. My belly rumbles, but all of the bread I have I give to my children. I will be a widow at dawn.
This is nothing, my life is over tomorrow anyway Oh dear! Please allow me to help. Step back a few feet and tell me what is going on. My husband is sentenced to death for conspiracy against the king. My land is taken away. I have nothing for my children. I heard the news, but didn't know your husband was the one convicted. Perhaps we can help him escape. As you know, I'm enchanted and have some degree of magical abilities. Could you? with him alive we could run away and start anew with our family. He didn't do it, but knows the bad people. The only difficulty would be getting by the guards. I can easily unlock his cell through my enchantment, but you will have to come up with a way to distract the guards. I can think of something. I could stir up trouble. Excellent! If you clear the way, I can free him and help him escape the prison. I'm afraid there is no way to get your land back, but I'll do anything I can to help you. Well we need to get to the cells shortly if we are going to do this I agree. Let's move at sundown. If we can make the transition right as it gets dark, we can do it during the changing of the guard. That will be our best chance. Sounds good I like the plan With any luck, he will be free by dark and all our loved ones can be together again.
