40

You dash away from the harbour and along the narrow street, darting like a hunted beast among the doorways and shadows. Tall warehouse buildings rise up on either side of the street, and the only sound you can hear is that of your own footsteps.

You have run only a short way when you reach a crossroads. The right and left turnings lead into alleyways, while the narrow street continues ahead.

If you have the Magical Power of Prophecy and wish to use it, turn to 64.

If you wish to turn into the left alleyway, turn to 223.

If you wish to turn into the right alleyway, turn to 76.

If you would rather continue along the narrow street, turn to 195.
