You don't feel like stopping now. You continue along the passage, deeper underneath the mountains.

After several more twists and turns, you suddenly hear a scraping noise coming towards you. You shine your flashlight. It's a bony, grinning skeleton, spear in hand. As it sees you, it prepares to throw it.

Taking careful aim with your revolver, you fire a single shot. The bullet severs the skeleton's spine at the neck and its head falls off, clattering loudly on the stone floor. The rest of the bones collapse a second later. You pump your fist at your markswomanship.

More scraping noises. Several more skeletons are advancing. You pick up the spear and hurl it like a javelin with your well-muscled arm. The projectile shatters the spines of the lead skeleton and the one right behind it, sending both to the ground in pieces. Drawing your sword, you perform a front tuck somersault towards the remaining undead. Landing neatly on your booted feel, you cut off a bony arm as it tries to swing a blade at you. You decapitate the next skeleton, then slice and dice two more into a dozen pieces.

The one-armed skeleton picks up its sword with its other arm and charges you. You calmly wait until it's at just the right distance, then perform a standing split-leg back layout. Your backflip kick sends the skeleton's head flying across the cavern. After a perfect landing, you simply push over the now headless bones. Looking around at the fallen undead turned dead again, you nod in satisfaction. You feel a major ego boost as you think of how the average woman, and the average man, never would have been able to do what you just did.

You hear footsteps. Slow, heavy footsteps. Shining your flashlight, you see three mummies advancing on you, arms extended like in a cheesy horror movie.
