1010 It is possible to deplete Myurdin's health bar if you play well enough. However, defeating Myurdin in the prologue yields no rewards and does not change the story. After you win, Myurdin simply respawns and the scripted story sequence plays out exactly the same way. The prologue outcome is fixed regardless of your performance.
