Without any warning, the hand springs to life. It stands upright on its fingers, the first two drawn back so that it resembles a monstrous spider preparing to attack. You step back aghast as it scurries around in a circle on the granite plinth.

If you wish to attack the hand, turn to 116.

If you have a Fireseed and wish to throw it at the plinth, turn to 157.

If you wish to skirt around the plinth and enter the passage beyond, turn to 302.
