### 72

The creature’s flaming fists scorch your tunic, but your Kai Mastery enables you to survive the worst of the searing heat. The attack is wild and haphazard and you have no difficulty avoiding the blows. Ducking beneath the creature’s arm, you sprint away towards the jets of flame in the hope of evading the attack, but the sight of the inferno ahead makes you hesitate.

If you wish to enter the flame-jets, turn to 204.

If you choose to stand and fight the Flame-man, turn to 126.
