You wrench the spur free. The armour collapses with the ordinary noise of old metal.

The second key bites into your weapon's grip. Your strikes deal one more damage, and its trapped heat restores up to one flame.

For a moment you want to say something to the heap in the thorns. There is no longer anyone there to hear it.
