### 241

You turn into a street leading from the square and break into a run. Behind, you hear the cry of a Shadakine, ordering you to halt.

You have turned into a busy high street, crowded with people, and try as you may you cannot clear a way through them. Suddenly the crowd scatters, diving for cover. Twenty yards ahead stand three Shadakine warriors: an officer and two crossbowmen with weapons loaded and aimed at your heart.

'Halt, or you're dead!' shouts the Shadakine officer, savagely.

If you wish to obey his order, turn to 300.

If you want to attack them, turn to 66.

If you would rather turn and try to make a break for it, turn to 20.
