### 94

An agonizing pain engulfs your right leg when an arrow hits and penetrates deep into your thigh: lose 5 ENDURANCE points. You fight to stay on your feet, but your wounded leg buckles beneath your weight and drags you unwillingly to the ground. Gritting your teeth against the pain, you wrench the shaft from your leg and force yourself to stand. By the use of your Magnakai curing skills, you are then able to numb the agony of your wound and force yourself onwards.

On reaching the pit, you quickly pull aside the planks that lie strewn across the opening. Peering down into the darkness, you glimpse the tangled wreckage of a cage lying at the bottom of the shaft, 60 feet below. The Shom’zaa minions are closing in, firing as they advance. When a second arrow rips the sleeve of your tunic, you quickly decide that you must climb down the shaft to avoid being struck again.
