The Forbidden City

185

With the ferocious hound snapping at your heels, you and Urik thread your way along the shallow waterway leading from the bog. Sadly the muddy ground slows your progress and you are unable to outrun the wild beast. Instead, you stop suddenly and swing your Staff in an arc that smashes into the Magdi’s snout. It is not a serious injury but your bravado has paid off. The Magdi is too stunned to move against you, one head lolling uselessly to one side in a daze and the other too confused to understand what has happened.

If you wish to kill the Magdi, turn to 149.

If you wish to flee, turn to 156.
