He jumps down off the roof, spins around in the air and fires a bolt from his crossbow at the players which hits Incognito in the shoulder. Incognito falls back on his back in a groan of pain. Gerald lands on a balcony two floors down and quickly swings himself off it down onto the roof below (yep, more roof, see the map of the palace roof). Kurk and Stickler jump after him and Icognito stands up and starts running to the edge of the roof. Stickler lands safely on the balcony but Kurk seems to have miscalculated a little and misses, he falls down but Incognito (who has reached the edge) casts Levitate on him and levitates him back up on the roof. Stickler swings himself down off the balcony and onto the roof below and immediately starts running after Gerald who has reached the end of this roof and prepares to jump to the next one. When Kurk gets back onto the roof above he grunts nastily as Incognito pokes fun at him: “Heh, you’re gonna make a habit of this aren’t you?” Kurk frowns and answers in a grumpy voice: “Ya nitwit, ya should’ve levitated me down, not up, so I could keep on chasing da bastard!”Gerald jumps over to the next roof with Stickler closely on his trail. Stickler is able to grab on to one of the holy trinkets on Gerald’s armour, but Gerald jumps into the air, disbalancing Stickler who falls down onto his face. Gerald keeps running but finds out that the distance to the next roof is too great to jump over. He looks over the edge but there he sees Sergeant Carp and a large group of capes coming around the corner. He’s stuck, Carp and the capes down below and Stickler (who’s standing up, wiping his broken nose) blocking his other way away (with Kurk and Incognito gaining on them). |---------------|> END MUSIC <|-----------------|Stickler sees the worried expression on Gerald’s face: “Give up Gerald, there’s no way out of this.”Gerald grabs for a bolt to reload his crossbow but he finds that he has lost his crossbow bolts on the run. He looks down again and moves closer to the edge: “Don’t come closer you pig, I’m warning you.”“What are you gonna do? Jump? Be my guest.” Incognito and Kurk have now reached them and Kurk swings his axe around threatingly.“Screw you!” Gerald’s expression changes from terror to anger. “Why can’t you all understand?! He’s a witch fergawdsake, he’s evil! He’s got you all under his spell, he and his demonic kin!” Gerald looks down again, hesitates for a second and then just casually jumps down. He lands on the street below with a big thump. Sergeant Carp runs over to the body. “Eww!” He says as he steps in the pool of blood that’s starting to surround the body. He bends down, checks for pulse and then shakes his head slowly. “He’s dead.” He looks up to the roof at the players and says loudly: “Good work guys. Now come down and help in cleaning this mess up.”Guildmaster Qter, who just entered the scene, objects: “On the contrary sergeant, if anything, our heroes should be rewarded, not to be forced into such activities.” He raises his glass. “I salute you, the very pride of Serpent City.”A couple of the other guests join the salution as well as the rest of the capes raise their weapons into the air. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * They finish the ceremony and Ztorialim is crowned into office. The players are sent to the healers, where they spend the night.</blockquote>
