### 88

For half an hour you crouch among the boulders, your eyes scanning every inch of the terrain which surrounds the clearing, but you detect nothing untoward. Then the silence is broken by a sharp clack! and a small rock comes tumbling down the slope. You catch sight of movement among some bushes at the top of the slope, and you sense at once that someone is hiding there.

If you possess a Bow and wish to fire an Arrow into the bushes, turn to 227.

If you do not, turn to 320.
