[John Wick] So I'm new to the guild, and it was made very clear that I would be executed on sight for breaking the rules of The Continental, but what if someone tries to kill me first? Can I kill them in self-defense and it not count as 'business'?

I heard that this 'Wick' fellow beat and tied up a fellow assassin who tried to kill him and he had no repercussions for his actions, but he also didn't kill her at the time, so I'm not entirely sure how this all works.

If killing someone in self-defence is your only option, then it wouldn’t be business. However, you would be encouraged to disable rather than kill in this situation. Killing is a last option approach, similar to the real world.
