	Your arrow sinks into the creature's chest and makes 
Š	it howl with pain, yet it does not deflect the beast. 
Š	The sheer momentum of its attack is propelling it 
Š	towards you. Hurriedly you drop your bow and reach to 
Š	your weapon, but it has barely cleared its scabbard 
Š	when the creature is suddenly upon you, its vile 
Š	breath hot in your face. You are slammed against the 
Š	wall by the impact of the collision (lose 2 ENDURANCE 
Š	points) and momentarily stunned, but still you 
Š	manage to duck its slashing claws which rake deep 
Š	grooves in the wall above your head. With a swift 
Š	twist of your body you unpin yourself from the wall 
Š	and create the vital space you need in order to wield 
Š	your weapon against this determined and terrible foe.
