How odd! Strange as it sounds, I never realized the game's area description doesn't tell you about the knight. Probably because I'm the reverse: I notice menu options more readily than the area descriptions.

Anyway, to rectify this point of usability, I've added an italicized annotation in the area description telling the player that the knight is there.
