Kalan looked over at the other man the inquisitor had identified, he had hardly moved.
"Damn it!" Kalan thought,
"no use there then." He didn't know whether it was the fact inside his body was enough alcohol to kill a large beast, or that he didn't want to find out if the stories he'd heard about inquisitors was true, but Kalan felt there was nothing else he could do. Knowing this was going to go very badly, Kalan eyed up the quickest route out of the bar. Everyone had either sat down or slipped out during the commotion, so the doorway was clear. He took a deep breath and without much more thought he looked at the guard nearest to him and cast
Death's embrace, encasing the man in a dome of bones. He then looked at the second guard and again cast
Death's embrace. Finally, at the man seemingly in charge and cast his final
Death's embrace.
Kalan didn't want to wait around to see what would happen and ran straight out of the door, throwing up repeatedly on his way there. He didn't know what would happen to the other two who'd been singled out and right now he didn't care. There was a pang of guilt for his new friend the merchant, who would likely be killed, but having known the man just one night Kalan knew he'd get over it.
Part running, part staggering, part stopping to empty his guts, Kalan made his way back into the hills around the town from where he'd appeared not so long ago. He knew the woods were thick and decided he'd hide out there for a while. Maybe he'd go back for the other two, or maybe he'd be running around this island all his life. But right now, Kalan couldn't care, he just wanted to escape.

EDIT: I only gained 3 XP in Protect, but did get the 3XP in Death. 9 Concentration was taken, but not sure on the Energy as I can't remember what it was before committing the actions.
