You produce a key from under your armor.
You know,
you say, conspiratorally,
I have the key to the Vault. Maybe I can let you in, for half of what's inside.
You realize too late that this man is a criminal as he flashes his sword and cuts off your arm. You fall to the ground, bleeding, as he dismounts his horse, pulls the key from your disembodied hand, and walks to the door of the Vault.
As your vision blackens, you hear the click of the lock.
