Noooo!” the assassin screams, trying to grab the figurine you are holding over the ravine.

You land your knee in his crotch. He wails in pain and falls over the edge.

“Haha!” you laugh triumphantly, “I win!

When a hand grabs your collar, you realise he didn’t fall but is clinging to a root. “Let go of me!” you scream.

“Give me the figurine!”

Somebody grabs the figurine from behind you, freeing it from your grip.

Another assassin!

“Sacrifices have to be made,” the first assassin says, still holding your collar.

You feel someone lifting your legs.

Slide and fall…

You are miraculously saved. Continue.
