Mortally wounded by your blows, the Kraan emits a gurgling cry and crashes to the ground. As it shudders in the grip of its death-throes, its broken wings churn the debris that besmears the floor and it splatters you with the foul-smelling ordure. Hurriedly you retreat from the dying Kraan and sheathe your Kai Weapon as you make your way across the hall towards the arched stairwell.

Turn to 209.
