 With only seconds to spare you utter the Word - "nethel". In that instant the barrier collapses away, its shimmering field evaporating into nothingness before your eyes. With no time to waste you run for the passage, the air behind you filled with the thunder of the beast's approach. In these few moments you think there is a chance that you may escape, but it is a hope that fades as quickly as the barrier itself. In your haste you did not command the barrier to simply let you pass. Instead you have removed it completely, the Druhl now free to pursue you into the large passage ahead.
Without looking back you run, the ground resonating to the pounding footfalls of the beast, but it is a race you cannot win. In an eruption of smashed stone and pluming dust the Dragon brings a solid clawed fist down upon you. In a bone crushing impact you die, nothing remaining of your time in the world but a bloody stain upon the floor of the passage. Your quest is over. Providence has not been kind but perhaps in a latter life you shall find better luck.
