Andrea bounded up the stairs from the crypt, and emerged into the hall
that ran the length of the builing. A merc, alerted by the commotion from
below, was standing about five yards distant and blocking her way. Not
only was he 6' 3" and 250 pounds, but he had a sword. There was only one
chance, and she took it. She drew back her arm, and threw the dagger at
him as hard as she could.
Her aim was true, and the dagger pierced the merc's throat. His hands scrabbled ineffectually at it for a moment, as the blood poured out, and then he collapsed to the floor. Andrea had the presence of mind to grab his sword as she ran by. She left by a side door into an alleyway.
