Legend

You dodge the guard's last attack and start running, he's too tough. You need to catch a breather and an advantage. You throw a potted plant at his face and then run down one of the hallways.

You duck into one of the rooms ready to ambush guard when he comes looking for you, but upon entering, you notice the dancing girl attempting to hide her son. They both look upon you with fear.

"Life's tough kid, and today just isn't your day…" you say heartlessly and strike him down as well.

You cautiously step back to the room where you were fighting with him, and see him dead on the floor. Again, you're surprised. You didn't think you caused enough damage to kill him, unless the potted plant was the final straw, but that seems unlikely.

You're a little nervous about lingering around; you're still expecting an ambush of some sort.

You have 2 choices:
