The two continued to circle one another, at one point, Astor was directly opposite the entrance, which was also the exit, and he briefly considered fleeing back into the castle, however, he was too stubborn to concede a duel and stopped only for a second before continuing his circular path. Ligo side-stepped onto a portion of the path, which had a viewing section. Behind him was a sheer drop of one hundred feet, but he realised his danger too late. There was a shot of blue light, which, this time, did not bounce off the telescope but hit him directly in the chest. Ligo felt his body go numb and his wand slips out of his hand, he stumbled back a few steps leaning against the rail to stop himself from falling to his knees. Astor came up behind him and, without saying another word, ruthlessly lifted Ligo up from his legs and dangled him below the precipice. With one last shove, he tossed Ligo over the edge and Ligo could only watch as the ground came up to meet him, and on impact, all went black.
