About 10 minutes later, when he was sound asleep, Katrina crawled out of bed, trying not to awaken Gareth. She put her chemise and skirt back on, and picked up the magical staff. It was topped with a skull-shaped grip, holding a red, glowing orb that was filled with moving clouds. She cast a small spell, which told her how to use it. The spell also woke Gareth. "Theif! Give back my staff, whore!" he shouted. "No. It's mine now," Katrina said as she leveled the orb at Gareth. Then she actvated it, sending three spinning red magical orbs, each with 4 prongs, into his body. As he lay there dying, he shouted, "I curse you, slut! From now on, if you don't lay with at least one man a day, you will die in agony." A tremor went through him. "And if you ever lay again with your own species, then you shall-" His final words were a whisper, unable to be heard by Katrina. A tremor passed through him, and his spirit left his body. Scared, she fled the building.
