Success

Running away (screaming optional)

Only a fool would try to turn this ophidian tide. You scramble over stony fetlocks and leap between the cracked marble feet of princes. The music of the flute fades after half a mile, and the snakes disperse back to their hollows and trees.


Failure

Snakes ahead and snakes behind

Only a fool would try to turn this ophidian tide. You scramble over stony fetlocks and leap between the cracked marble feet of princes. Ow! A nasty little asp was hiding in the shadow of a toppled horse.
