As your blade cuts down the third and last of your adversaries, you step back and sheathe your weapon. Then you cover your sightless eyes with the palms of your hands. Using your Magnakai Curing skills, you channel your innate healing powers through your palms and into your eyes, quickly mending the damaged tissues. When your vision returns, the first thing you see is the bodies of three Hammerland bandits lying sprawled on the ground at your feet. Anxious to hide them in case they should betray your presence here, you drag each of your slain foes across the broken altar and into the alcove. Here you begin burying their corpses beneath the dust and rubble.

If you wish to search the Hammerlanders before you cover them, turn to 109.

If you do not, turn to 290.
