### 84

You meet with no resistance: your hand pushes through the bubble's skin as if you were dipping it in water. However, when you try to withdraw it, the transparent membrane closes around your wrist in a vice-like grip. As the wolf's jaws snap shut around your legs, the bubble envelopes the upper half of your body.

In the space of one grisly minute, you are simultaneously suffocated and torn to shreds.

Your life and your quest end here.
