...ith your sword but the spider is faster then you and it bowls into your legs its beady multifaceted eyes glow red in the dim web filled clearing. You manage to keep your balance and with a downward chop sever the spider in twain. Looking to the west you see Torn similarly dispatching at least four spiders he weaves his twin swords gracefully slashing left and slicing right, he is so caught up in his dance of death that he doesn't notice a huge black shape shambling towards him. You run yelling straight at the creature, "Die foul beast!" It turns towards you and at that moment Torn appears jumping over top of it and plunging his swords both into the monstrosity's head up to their hilts. The spider drops slowly to the ground and the remaining shapes scuttle into the webbing. "Nice work Kalith, glad to have you here to help." Torn smiles and you just catch the gleam in his eye in time to dodge his blade. You back away and standing in a totally defensive stance have to make a decision.

Do you turn and flee back into the woods?

Uh oh. No one's written this branch yet. :o
