### 152

Your arrow strikes home, sinking into the side of another creature. The creature jerks backwards and freezes in a ghastly contortion of pain. The thrashing legs of its wounded companion knock it from the walkway, and it topples stiffly into the chasm.

Only one creature remains uninjured. It turns on you, its grisly mouth stained green with the blood of its companion.

If you wish to fire another arrow at this enemy, turn to 253.

If you wish to turn and flee into the archway opposite, turn to 277.
