The lawmaster stands behind the counter facing the carved out passage. He leans forward towards it. The fire below illuminating his armor.

You loop the noose around his neck

He snaps at you, shouting. He jostles you around, knocking you back against the wall of the tunnel; you can feel his blood boiling. He knocks you around again - your back against the shelves of the inn. You can feel he is panicking.

In a flight of frenzy he lifts the massive double-crescent atop his head, shattering the marble countertop in two. The half of the stone is forced on the floor. You hear a metal clang. 

He babbles something incoherent as tries to punch your face with a crossed fist; your feel your back move from the shelves and hit something hard. And you soon notice that he is on top of you, crushing your body!

He clubs you in the face with his fist but you can feel it is weaker, his breath is ragged. One of his hands coils around the rope while another beats you. After some time you feel his breath slip away. He babbles some spit.

He is dead. The noose slips and disappears from your hands.

You move from underneath him.
