Shadow on the Sand

86

You sprint through the archway, keeping a watchful eye on the two drinking guards. The dust is settling, and should they turn around, you will certainly be seen. In your hurry, you fail to see a stone statue close to the wall and catch it with your knee. Stifling a yelp of pain, you hobble into the palace gardens and take cover beneath a leafy kasl bush. You lose 1 ENDURANCE point due to your injury, but at least you have entered the Grand Palace unseen.

Turn to 137.
