Tern continued to hold the man in gold armour, the point of his dagger an inch from his artery. "Now," he growled close to the man's ear, "I could kill you but that wouldn't teach you anything. Human spirits don't come back once they've been sent on." He paused. "I know, just by your sword that you wouldn't have given us a choice if you had a chance. I'm going to give you one." The boy paused again and glanced at the silver sword the man wore.
"Pure silver, yes?" The man nodded his head slightly and Tern shifted his dagger a little closer to the now throbbing artery. "I didn't hear you."
"Ye... yes." The man stammered. "Th... that's what the m... man I bought it from said."
"Unbuckle your belt and let it fall to the ground." Tern instructed calmly. The man hesitated a moment but when he felt the point of the dagger brush his neck right over the artery he quickly complied. As soon as the sword touched the ground Tern shifted and put his foot on the weapon with no sign of any ill effect. Then he shoved the man away from him and crouched in one movement to take hold of the sword. "Now go! And don't come back. Next time you won't get the same chance."
The moment Tern said the last word there was a swirl of black fog around him and he was gone, as was the silver sword.
