As the Great Hresh lumbers down upon you it suddenly stops, its huge jaw hanging as if it cannot believe its own eyes. You have disappeared, vanishing in a shimmer of air like a distant mirage on a hot day. Frustration and then fear builds on its face as the Hresh begins a frantic sweep of the room with its sword, trying desperately to hit its now invisible opponent.
Within seconds the Hordim lays dead, your sword protruding from its back. Although it gives you no pleasure to kill in such a manner the quest is too important, the consequences of failure too great. After pulling the weapon from its lifeless form, you wipe its blood from your sword and then begin a quick search of the room. In the course of your search you find:
 12 silver pieces,
 1 broad sword, but it is broken and will be of no use,
 1 finely carved battle shield,
 set of leather and chain mail armour,
 some food, and
 a large locked chest.
You may take two of the first five items on the list. Make sure you note these on your character sheet. If you choose either the shield or armour add 1 additional point to your combat value. The last item you might wish to look at is the locked chest.

If you wish to open the chest turn to section 29.
If you do not wish to open the chest turn to section 194.
