### 247

Something appears in the clear, sunlit sky. At first you think that one of the little winged snakes has returned, but, as the creature draws closer, you realize that this beast is far larger, though identical to the earlier serpents in every other way.

If you wish to attack the Flying Snake at long range with your Wizard's Staff, turn to 66.

If not, turn to 59.
