A movement […] catches your eye, and you fire at it. […] the shot devils use is too light to kill with one hit. As he tries to stumble away, the Smuggler knocks him unconscious with a thrown stone, and the hounds arrive to beg for their share.
Just as you begin to squeeze the trigger, your prey opens his eyes. Undeniably human eyes. A tremor in your hand sends your bullet wide, and he disappears behind a colonnade.
