Executioners.
A separate caste of people.
To become the executioners was very difficult.
For wrong executions hangman could tear the crowd and no one would have even tried.
For the executioner was the lowest person in the hierarchy of medieval society.

Otyavlennye criminals are allowed to catch yourself when you had to choose between getting caught or escape through the gate to the executioner. The church, which was reserved for a special angle kosntitse, and this church was only one in the whole of Prague.
The executioner, his family and servants lived outside the city, they bring products directly to the house and the servants could only pay for the goods, because no trader would not take "dirty money" from the hands of the executioner.
For every penalty or torture the city authorities paid them a very solid money, and the executioner was a very wealthy man.

Yang volunteered to help the Prague executioner Jaros hoping to save Dorothy. But the latter is still executed, and the way back was not there.
Jaros took the unfortunate young man in Prague and not to throw a family disgrace, Yang takes fimiliyu Mydlarzh. There for several years, working assistant executioner, he thoroughly studies the craft. And after the death of the Old Town Yarosh he becomes the executioner.
