	You unsheathe a hand weapon and struggle across the 
Š	heaving deck to regain your position at the ship's 
Š	rail. The enemy vessel has rammed the ιPride of 
Š	Sommerlundι and now a host of screaming warriors are 
Š	swarming aboard your stricken ship. You glance aloft 
Š	and see the giant spider scurry through the rigging 
Š	towards the crow's nest. The Sommlending lookout 
Š	shrieks hysterically and, in blind panic, throws 
Š	himself into the sea to avoid being eaten by the 
Š	hideous monster. On the deck below you can see 
Š	Sergeant Dryan and his men are fighting bravely to 
Š	repel the raiders. Those of Raker's crew who have 
Š	survived the collision hurriedly arm themselves and 
Š	rush to support the outnumbered marines, but they are 
Š	not trained fighters and they are no match for this 
Š	ruthless enemy. 


	If you wish to descend to the deck below and fight 
Š	alongside Sergeant Dryan's marines, turn to  β21β

	If you choose instead to climb the rigging and attack 
Š	the giant spider that is now perched upon the crow's 
Š	nest, turn to  β121β
