Trajan runs upstairs with the crystal, M’ir grabs hold of the bell rope and waits for instructions, Anne Marie unleashes another whirlwind of blows and takes down another half dozen townspeople, then steps into the doorway to prevent others passing.Trajan places the crystal under the Wyrmcall and shouts out “Now!, Pull the bell now!”. M’ir starts ringing the bell and thunderous tones hammer into Trajan and the crystal pulses scarlet, cracking across its edges.More zombified townspeople attempt to pile onto Anne Marie, but her reflexes and skill are punishing, and only one manages to get a grip which four others fall to the ground stunned. “STOP!! stop!” yell the voices. “I WILL GIVE YOU ANYTHING anything!”One of the possessed townspeople manages to slip past Anne Marie’s guard and lunges at M’ir, attempting to stop his frenzied ringing of the bell, but he swings around and with a swift karate kick lays out the opposition. Up above, Trajan is starting to succumb from the terrible sound of the bell himself, but seeing the crystal deteriorating further he slides back down the hatch and cries out “keep ringing, keep ringing”Anne Marie is surrounded by a pile of unconscious bodies and is a whirling blur of fists and kicks, stunning those attempting to grapple her and all those who surround her.Then suddenly it is over.There is a mighty splintering sound from the top of the bell tower, and a howl raises from hundreds of voices before suddenly ceasing – as if a door was suddenly closed on it. The townspeople collapse like puppets with cut strings, and the blue light disappears from their eyes.The battle is over.Back on the slither-ramp...</blockquote>
