You succeed in slashing the first skinner across its body, and it immediately crumples to the ground. However, the motion of using your sword while your hands are wounded causes pain to stab through your palms, and the motion reopens the cuts.

You turn to attack the other skinners. However, the pain in your hands is too great. Not to mention the fact that the blood soaking through the bandages makes the sword slippery in your hands.

The skinners make pretty short work of you, and then turn on the cat.

Your adventure ends here.
