Naria had been prepared for what was going to happen. She knew that she was the one to be lynched. But instead of protesting and crying out for mercy, she allowed the villagers to tie her up.
"Well, that was easy!"
Nogrod cried happily.
"So what do we do with her?"
Kath said uneasily.
"Well, she's a warrior. What would be a punishment for disobeying an order?" Lommy asked quietly.
"Beheading,"
Sleepy said simply.
They all looked at each other uneasily, none of them wanting to do the job themselves.
"Okay, this is getting annoying!"
Naria said imaptiently. "Will you kill me already? Only the ropes are chaffing my wrists."
"Ah shut up!!"
Volo cried.
"Yeah, what you going to do about it, you mediocre Inn keeper!" sneered
Naria.
"You didn't!"
"I believe I just did!"
"That's it!!"
Volo cried and he lunged for
Naria's sword. But he was too late.
Naria was already dead, her head on the ground. "Uh, what happened?" he asked, utterly perplexed. He then looked up and saw
Macalaure holding up
Naria's bloody sword.
"I was getting annoyed by your bickering," he said simply. And the villagers walked away, disappointed that they had not found the Wolf and wondering what would happen that night.
