### 163

While you wait for the return of the guard, you are taunted and ridiculed by the other bully. He describes with relish all the horrible tortures that await you and is greatly disappointed when the other guard returns empty-handed. 'The Zakhan doesn't want our northern friend damaged. He's got something special planned for him this evening,' he snarls.

Wicked grimaces spread across their faces as they turn to leave the cell. Both now have their backs towards you.

If you have the Kai Discipline of Sixth Sense, turn to 144.

If you wish to attack the guards, turn to 174.

If you wish to remain as you are, turn to 18.
