I don't understand. Why don't you walk away? I know this all technically started with me killing the guys hassling Mitaldes, but why didn't you take the hint after I killed the entire squad meant to keep people out of the temple? I even killed the ambush squad sent because I extorted the gem out of their client. In what universe would you keep testing your luck?

CS at least had guns so one lucky shot could kill you realistically so why would you, but this setting is limited to at best bombs and poisoning, which you can do far better than anyone else.
