You retreat from the fissure and return across the killing zone to the edge of the petrified forest. You are feeling disheartened by your unsuccessful attempt to gain entry to the fortress, but you do not allow this disappointment to weaken your determination to succeed. After resting for a few minutes, you resolve to enter Gazad Helkona by another route.

Before you make your second attempt to enter Xaol’s stronghold, you must now eat a Meal or lose 3 ENDURANCE points (unless you possess the Discipline of Grand Huntmastery).

To continue, turn to 62.
