Courting Death

Ryan couldn't help but notice the strange girl amongst the spectators of his duel. Where everyone else was dressed in the robes of the sect, she bore nothing but a scythe. How appropriate, he thought, that Death would be here to watch as he died at the hands of a Young Master. So with nothing to lose, and his soul about to rejoin the cycle...he decided to at least go out complimenting a pretty girl. Which makes it all the more strange that he's still alive.
