### 52

A hail of arrows engulfs you; pain explodes through your chest, neck and shoulder. You are mortally wounded and although you fight with grim determination to hang on to life, it is a struggle you cannot win. Weak from shock and loss of blood, you fall from the saddle and die on the highway to Varetta.

Your life and your quest end here.
