Khorghali: grits teeth Damn curse! Almost... there...
the rest of the clan begins chanting in a foreign language
clenches fists, eyes narrowed You bastards! I won't let you take another inch of my soul!
a warrior is chained to a stone altar by several chains, shackles and chains covering his body
cracks knuckles, steps forward with determination I'm gonna rip these chains apart like they're nothing! Watch me, you pathetic demons!
a large crowd of chanting cultists surrounds the altar, holding torches
narrows eyes, scanning the crowd Gotta focus... find the weak spot... whispers to himself
one cultist suddenly goes silent and falls over dead
smirks, cracking their knuckles One down, plenty more to go. Time to make some noise. charges towards the cultists, knocking them out one by one
all of the cultists are knocked out
breathing heavily, standing amidst the fallen cultists That should keep them quiet. Now, where's that damn curse-breaker?
no one is anywhere to be seen
scans the area, tension rising What the hell? Where did everyone go? starts pacing, muttering to themselves
the sound of horses approaching can be heard from the horizon
squints, ears perked up Horses? Who the fuck is riding towards us? quickly moves towards the shadows, ready for a fight
the warriors who were at the battle approach from behind
eyes widen, whispers urgently Shit! It's the warriors who cursed me! quickly hides behind a large rock, observing their approach
the warriors form a circle around the altar, the warrior bound to it being raised up and tied to a post
Khorghali manages to sneak past the warriors and free the cursed warrior from the altar, but the warriors chase after them, determined to prevent the curse from being broken.
the warriors attempt to attack and kill the cursed man before he can touch the artifact that will break the curse
steps forward, drawing a sword You motherfuckers! Back off! charges towards the warriors, slashing through them with precision Cursed Warrior: struggling against his restraints, shouts Khorghali! Help me!
khorghali fights off all of the warriors and retrieves the artifact from the altar, then gives it to the cursed man
breathing heavily, clutching the artifact tightly Here you go, you bastard! Break that curse once and for all! hands trembling with urgency
the cursed man touches the artifact and instantly breaks the curse, dying of natural causes
eyes widen in shock, drops to their knees No... no, you can't just die! voice breaking I... I finally broke the curse... laughs hysterically
he rises to his feet, now fully healed from his injuries
clenches fists, voice filled with rage You think this is over? You fucking monsters! I'll make you pay for everything you've done!
he grabs the artifact and holds it above his head
lunges towards ZinThe, weapon drawn Give that back, you son of a bitch! slashes wildly I won't let you use the artifact against me again!
he dodges khorghali's attacks and jumps back, preparing to fight
eyes narrowed, voice dripping with determination You're not getting away with this, ZinThe!
he grabs a cultist woman from the ground and uses her as a meat shield to block khorghali's attacks
grits teeth, eyes blazing with fury You disgusting bastard! Using innocent people to protect yourself?
he kicks khorghali in the face, sending him flying backwards
growls, spitting blood You think you can take me down that easily? charges towards ZinThe, weapon raised You're gonna regret underestimating me!
he blocks khorghali's attacks with his sword and kicks him in the stomach, sending him to the ground
spits out blood, struggling to stand You... you think you've won? grits teeth I'm not giving up that easily!
he picks up the artifact and runs off into the night
stumbles to their feet, clutching their weapon tightly Damn you, ZinThe! I won't let you escape! shouts to the fleeing cultists Come on, you filth! Help me catch him!
the cultists stop in their tracks, fearing what will happen if they aid khorghali
Khorghali furiously chases after ZinThe, but the cultists refuse to help him, fearing his wrath. Despite his injuries, Khorghali continues the pursuit alone, driven by a burning desire for revenge.
