Quickly you drop to the ground and roll away from the hole in the cavern wall. Using the momentum of your evasive move, you spring to your feet and look up at the ceiling. There you see a large creature. It resembles a huge black beetle, with mandibles and a shiny shell which covers a pair of membranous hind wings. From a bony tube beneath this horror’s gaping mouth comes a thin length of thread. It whips around your legs and yanks you back onto the ground. As you fall, another thread loops around your body. You gasp for air as this steely thread is pulled tighter.
