Raising the torch threateningly, you watch the spider advance towards you and doog. The firelight glints off its eyes, and you decide to try to dazzle it so that you can run for the gate on dry ground. Thinking that, you wave the torch at the spider, and doog comes up beside you with a soft growl and hackles raised.
The spider leaps, doog intercepts, and you look for a chance amidst their tussle to jab the spider with your torch. Finally you manage it, and the spider falls back with a loud hiss.
You immediately whistle doog and hurry to the gate, keeping closer to the larger body of water as you go; the spider attempts to follow, but it seems to have lost the use of a leg and cannot keep up. As you pass, you realise the larger body of water is placid, but filled with vague signs of movement deep beneath; the smaller body of water is fast-flowing, but seems empty.
You decide your choice was a good one.
But your self-congratulations comes too soon.
a last gasp at light, the darkness closes in
You fumble at the gate, and swing it open just as doog barks again.

Probably one of the easiest map updates
ever.

Let me know how you're finding the quest! Too easy? Too hard? Not enough information to know either way?
