Success

Outpacing the Stolen River!

Hangman's Arch is etched against the darkness by glassy blue light. Mr Twitch meekly submits his neck to the noose. Ill-mannered youths fling puffballs. The Esotoxicology students cheer and raise foaming mugs. "Stop!" you cry.

You're just in time. The hangman pauses. You pour out a torrent of explanations. No one's clear exactly what you're talking about, but your status as investigating detective allows you to talk them round. Your reputation with the Constables has taken a serious knock, but you manage to arrange a second round of dramatic denouement at Concord Square.

Failure

Too late!

Hangman's Arch is etched against the darkness by glassy blue light. Mr Twitch meekly submits his neck to the noose. Ill-mannered youths fling puffballs. The Esotoxicology students cheer and raise foaming mugs. "Stop!" you cry.

Too late! The trapdoor snaps open and Mr Twitch dangles bonelessly. Well, more bonelessly. The Esotoxicology students bang their mugs on the scaffold. Someone strikes up a cheery air on the portable organ. Rubbery Men don't return like true men: there'll be no trip to the tomb-colonies for this one. Your reputation with the Constables has taken a knock, but at least your payment arrives.
