Key concept
In the outcomes section of an encounter, you can do a lot of things. In this case, we will add a custom "aspect" onto each character. Then the second encounter will have filters, so it will only trigger if the required aspects are present. Suppose the first encounter adds aspects to two characters, but one of them is killed. Then the second encounter will never trigger because it will never find both aspects.
