The creature leaps upon you as you are falling backwards and together you tumble down the circular stairs, locked in a deadly embrace. You hit the floor of the landing below with a numbing jolt which leaves you momentarily stunned (lose 2 ENDURANCE points), but still you manage to roll aside to evade the creature’s slashing claws which rake deep grooves in the stone floor. With a corkscrew twist of your body, you are able to free yourself and spring to your feet. This creates the vital space you need in order to unsheathe your weapon and use it against this determined and terrible foe.
