 Struck by the sheer size of the Arachnari you know you have no chance of defeating it with your sword. With little option available to you, you decide to try something usually only the province of the foolhardy, or the desperate.
Quickly you open your pack and find a bottle of beer and one finger of your remaining Nahla bread. You have no time to prepare it properly but instead empty a portion of the beer out of its glass container and stuff the Nahla bread into it. Even as you force the last of the finger into the bottle you can feel its smooth surface becoming hot, and know that within seconds the explosive mixture will detonate.
Carefully you cork the bottle and wait, trying to keep your balance on the undulating web as the huge creature advances towards you. But you cannot wait too long. When the Arachnari is at the centre of the web you throw the flask at its armoured hide and jump for the edge of the nest. What comes next surprises even you.
