Round on the sword-archer
From Create Your Own Story
No amount of training has prepared you for me. I rushed the man, swinging at him with my sword and unbalancing his defense. The other archer, however, had time to fire an arrow and struck me in the left hip. -4 health. Small matter, I'll deal with you in time. I pressed onwards with my attack, and diving into the man's defense I sliced him open across the chest. He gasped in pain and made a desperate effort to slice at me in the opening. I ducked down to the side, but he grazed my left arm with his swing as I stabbed him through his lower right side and pierced him diagonally upwards. -1 health. The force of my thrust ruptured his heart, and my foe was no more. +4 health.
Turning my attentions on the archer, he loosed another arrow towards me, but I managed to use the roll across the slick earth to avoid the missile. I sneered at my opponent, who with dawning horror realized it was hopeless. He drew his sword, but it was of little matter. In mere seconds I had closed the space, knocked aside his pathetic defense, and ended his existence. +4 health.
Blood stained my clothes, and a distant part of me, the part that bothered with appearances, was deeply disgusted. But not enough of me cared as I dined upon their remains.
It's been so long since I've tasted the sweet tang of blood. Though these sour men were no fine course meal, they would do quite nicely.
You are healed back to full health.
You have gained 40 xp and 6 Gold for killing the bandits.
Now, the question is, what do I do now? The hour was growing late, and already the sun was starting to set.
