At once you sense that the ghoulish creature has infected you with a virulent virus, which passed into your body the moment it scratched your face. Hurriedly you draw on the healing power of your Grand Master Discipline and cause an army of antibodies to be released into your bloodstream to counter the insidious virus. You feel your temperature rise as the antibodies battle to clear your blood and, within a few minutes, this battle is won. The use of your Discipline costs you 3 ENDURANCE points, but it saves you from an otherwise grisly death.

Once you have fully recovered, you check your equipment before climbing the steps which lead out of this grim cellar. Turn to 172.
