### 340

Fortunately, the Lavas fail to see you hit the ground and take cover beneath the basalt slab. Through a crack in the rock you watch as they encircle and attack the dragon, and then drag it to the ground. They are angry that the lumbering beast has lost its cargo and they berate and chastise it unmercifully.

While the Lavas are busy bullying the luckless dragon, you escape across this derelict piece of waste ground and hurry towards the construction area which lies close to the main temple.

Turn to 220.
