  You continue walking, when suddenly the rumbling gets deafening. You then decide perhaps it would be better to trun back, but before you can, you see a giant wave of water rushing through the tunnel towards you. AUUUGGH!
  Quick, what do you do? If you run, you may escape it, but if it catches up with you it will hammer you flat. If you go limp, you stand an equal chance of drowning or living.
  
  > go limp and let the water hit you
  You quickly go limp, and let the water hit you. It smashes into you painfully, but nothing serious. Suddenly, like a a tornado, you are pushed under the surface and spend several minutes in a panic, fighting to find some air.
  You're starting to grow dizzy. Looks like this is it...
  
  > Or is it?
  No, it isn't! You suddenly open your eyes and find yourself back at the fork in the tunnel. The wave apparently subsided, and now you're all right. You even manage to hang on to your weapons!
  Well, you don't want to go to the left again, so let's try the right.
  
  > Right (No risks)
  You decide to take the right and continue walking for some time. After a while, however, you come to a large domed room, similar to the one you started out in. In the center of the room there is an enormous pile of gold!
  Impulsively, you rush into the room, then gasp. Sitting in the middle of the gold is an enormous toad with the wings of a beetle, five legs and enormous sharklike jaws filled with sharp teeth. The minute it sees you, it growls an angry lizardlike shriek and slowly lumbers toward you.
  You scan the room quickly for possible weapons, and you see a switch on the other side of the room. Then you see a huge boulder hanging from a rope on the cieling. If you hit the switch, the boulder would fall on the breature, and possibly kill it.
  However, your sword and shield are much too heavy to throw, and you couldn't possibly run past this monster...
  Did you get the spear?
  
  > If you didn't get the spear, go here
  You realize, sadly, you did not get the spear, although you should have. You can only grab your sword and prepare for combat with the monster.
  It opens its wouth wide, and a long, wormlike tongue slowly extends out towards you. As it nears, you prepare to strike, but... WHAM! The tongue suddenly shoots toward you at lightning speed and firmly hooks around your ankle!
  OH NO! You're being drawn towards the creature's mouth.
  Given your inventory, there are only three things you can do. Quick, which do you choose?
  
  > drop the heavy iron shield on its tongue
  You quickly untie the shield from your hands, hold it over the monster's tongue and BAM! In a spray of blood, the tongue is not-so-neatly cut in two.
  The tip of the tongue becomes limp and drops off your foot. The larger part of the tongue is retracted into the monster's mouth, and it wails in agony. You are about to take advantage of its distraction by running it through with your sword, but suddenly, a large booming noise erupts out of the tunnel at the other end of the room (The tunnel you didn't just come out of).
  All of a sudden, an enormous hand emerges from the tunnel. It is really enormous; its pinky is as long as the toad monster, and he's the size of a two-story house. The toadbeast screams again, but the hand closes around it, and drags this two-story beast into the tunnel. Then, you hear wet crunching sounds coming from the inside of the tunnel, as if something had just taken a bite out of a bit, wet, squishy thing.
  Uh-oh. You suddenly aren't particularly anxious to enter that tunnel.
  
  > But unfortunately, you have to, unless you want to stay in this dungeon and starve to death, so let's get movnig shall you?
  The inside of this tunnel is pitch black.
  You stuffed your pockets full of the gold back in that room--since your shield was swallowed when the monster recoiled its severed tongue, you can now carry more stuff. However, that doesn't matter so much to you right now, since your teeth are chattering with fear as you thinof the monster that awaits you. If its hand was that big, the monster could be 10 stories high. Yikes.
  As you continue through the tunnel, you begin to reflect on your life. Your birth, your childhood, your training to enter the knighthood in order to fight for justice--your life seems disappointingly short. You can't think of how you're going to get through this alive, especially facing that huge monster with no shield.
  Oh, well. If you die, at least you will have gone down fighting.
  Your wait is almost over. In the distance, you see a dim light. You run faster, determined to get there quickly, and...
  
  > And what? Find out!
  You suddenly find yourself sliding into the center of the room; the floor is surprisingly slippery. This room is dark, except for a small hole in the cieling, through which daylight shines. Oh, sweey daylight! You thought you'd never see it again.
  Then, suddenly, you hear a rasping noise that seems to be coming from every corner of the room. As you try to adjust your eyes to the dark areas of the room, your opponent makes it easy for you: as more light suddenly pours through, you realize the enemy was blocking part of the ceiling hole. Now you can see the whole room... and your enemy.
  Your enemy is a giant, earth-colored serpent. Its head is as big as the toad monster (which was two stories, in case you'd forgotten), it has several huge legs, and it's so long, it takes up the entire room. This gives you a slight advantage; it has less room to move than you.
  The monster opens its enormous jaws, revealing two sets of long, thin, saber-like needles taller than you, and prepares to strike! What will you do?
  
  > throw the sword into its mouth so it will choke
  You rear back your arm, and throw the sword with all your might! It's really heavy, though, and it doesn't reach the mouth. NOOO!!!
  However, it does land on the serpent's long back, burying itself into the flesh. Unfortunately, this seems only to make the serpent angrier. It screams furiously, and prepares to swallow you again.
  What will you do now that you've lost your sword and shield?
  
  > run for your life
  You run back into the tunnel as fast as you can. You hear a scraping noise coming after you, and curse yourself for being stupid. You forgot that the serpent's hand can fit in this tunnel!
  Still, you run, never looking back, until you are back in the room where you fought the toad monster.
  You breathe a sigh of relief, thinking yourself safe now that the scraping noise has stopped.
  Suddenly...
  
  > Uh-oh...
  You're serpent food!
  Better luck next time!
