Regular

You defeated the assassin
You use all your strength to push away the blade and struggle against the masked assassin.

His attacks are ferocious, relentless, but unlike a professional who would disappear after a single, targeted strike, he is like a warrior fighting with his own life. As your shoulders brush past each other, you catch a pair of stone-cold eyes. Did your enemies send him? What have you done lately to draw such an attempt...? You have no time to ponder.

The sharp clanks of steel against steel resound through the silent night, and fortunately, it is you who emerge victorious. Exhausting every trick up your sleeve, you manage to strike him down. You wipe off the blood on your blade and pull off the assassin's mask.

You recognize the face and those eyes, forever frozen in death: it is the Royal Guard Captain, the Sultan's most loyal servant. Why is he here? Does he represent the Sultan's will? You are confused. There is a puzzle missing, and you thought you had the whole picture.

A chill creeps up your spine. Alas, the dead gives no answers.

Conditions:

Result:

You died at the hands of an assassin
You use all your strength to push away the blade and struggle against the masked assassin.

His attacks are ferocious, relentless, but he does not seem like a professional assassin who would disappear after a single, targeted strike. Instead, he is like a warrior fighting with his own life. During the confrontation, as your shoulders brush past each other, you catch a glimpse of a pair of cold, scornful eyes, full of contempt – did your enemies send him? What transgression did you commit?

You do not know and you have no time to think. Against his brutal onslaught, your strength fails you. Slowly but surely, your arm grows weak. The pain of your wounds tear all your thoughts to shreds, like silk threads that collapse at the touch of a finger, disappearing with the night wind.

In your final moments, who is it that appeared in your mind? Will she weep for you?
