### 327

The tide is carrying you towards a long, grey cliff line, made ominous by the flickering glow of burning battle debris. A flock of ugly black birds circle overhead. They dive repeatedly to retrieve carrion, and then soar away to their nests in the cliff wall. Two of the evil-looking creatures swoop down on you, mistaking your still form for a ready feast, and attempt to tear the skin from your face with their razor-sharp beaks.

If you possess the Magnakai Discipline of Animal Control and have reached the Kai rank of Primate or higher, turn to 207.

If you do not possess this skill or have yet to reach this level of Magnakai training, you can attempt to defend yourself with a Bow: turn to 49.

Or you can fend them off with a hand weapon: turn to 337.
