Backstory:
Shortly after the dire victory...

Hoodwink is fleeing from the battleground hoping that no one will catch her. She was already quite far from it and no one should go after her for so long. But immediately after she thought that she is in a safe place, in her direction with incredible speed flew Sven. Luckily, she was able to dodge it and his incoming next few attacks with his massive sword. Attacks were so powerful, so trees around just fall apart with every next swing he made. She understands that one more attack and her head will lie somewhere around if she will not find a way to escape.

Hit! The sound of breaking wood and metal resounded at a staggering volume. It was her crossbow, she know that she never get such a good crossbow in close future, but that was the last thing that could save her from this massive piece of metal. And it does, it saved her. The force of the attack threw her into a rock behind her.

Laying on a rock, she knew that what she seeing is the last seconds of her life. She understands that another try to flee will end with her death. The only thing she was left to do, is just stare at a huge knight with a massive sword slowly approaching her. She was ready to accept her fate.

He stands right above her staring right into her eyes through holes in his helmet. Dead silence hung in the air, the only thing that can be heard is her incredibly fast-beating heart. But nothing happens. "Why is he just staring at me?" - though Hoodwink in mind. "I`ll give you the second chance, but not so fast" - Said Sven like he is able to read her mind.

"Eek!?"
