The Broken Arrow Inn
As you sit there in the grip of this demon you reach for your sword, still in it's sheath at your side. Oddly you have no sensation in your legs. Evidently the blow to your back has paralyzed you from the waist down. You hand grasps the handle of your sword and you are able to get it free. The demon brings you closer to his face, stench rolling out of his crimson maw. He opens his mouth wider to reveal long fangs and he brings you even closer to bite you. The next thing you feel is a sharp pain on the side of your neck.
Mustering all of your strength you manage to thrust your sword up into the bottom of his jaw and up through the top of his head. He releases the grip on you and you fall to the ground. He stagers a moment then he too falls to the ground. In a brief flash of light his body begins to disappear. A few seconds later only your sword remains. It is covered in a thick black blood, that demon's blood. You can only imagine what that blood is going to do to you now that it is inside of your own body. You can feel your neck throbbing and you know that you won't last through to morning. At least you were able to defeat the demon, but it cost you your life.
