Trade your sword and pendant for the crossbow
From Create Your Own Story
"Sure," you say.
Monica nods. You place the pendant around her neck and hand her your sword, then pick up the crossbow.
"You know how to use that?" she asks.
"Of course," you reply as you load a bolt. "I have a lot of experience with all kinds of bows."
"Good to know. Come on, let's go."
It is you who have disturbed the undead. It is you who they are targeting. The bony undead priest fires his death magic at you. Pendantless, you collapse to the dirt, a gaping hole in your buxom chest.
Monica snatches up the crossbow and vaporizes the priest to bits with an explosive arrow, but it is too late for you. As you expire, your last thought is a hope that Monica can lead humanity to victory against the undead.
