### 206

Though mortally wounded, the winged ape holds on grimly. Then, suddenly, it hurls itself away, still holding the stallion's harness. The horse's head is twisted violently to one side and the noble animal loses its balance, tumbling to the ground. You lose 2 ENDURANCE points in the fall.

If you are still alive, turn to 272.
