### 227

The Arrow streaks into the bushes and you hear it shatter against the rocks behind. Then you hear the faint scrape of leather on stone, above and to the side. You turn to look and a man's voice growls, 'Don't move!'

Standing between two boulders away to your left is a grey-bearded man clad in furs and clutching a loaded crossbow. The weapon is pointing directly at your heart.

If you possess the Discipline of Telegnosis, and wish to use it, turn to 201.

If you do not possess this skill, or choose not to use it, turn to 280.
