**The Spider Queen**

You reach the end of the cave and find yourselves in a chamber full of cobwebs. In it, you can see a spider and a herder patrolling, but when you look up you see a large creature, half human half spider.

It's Tulah, the spider queen, and your only way out of this cave is by defeating her and climbing through the cobwebs to the outside.

Luckily, she still hasn't detected you, but it won't be long.

How will you deal with her?

Choices:

* [Combat] Draw you weapons and attack her directly.
	+ When Tulah sees you, she comes down from the cobwebs and the fight begins.
* [Rest +30%] Try to hide quickly and rest before fighting. (roll) (Group [4 or lower])
	+ Fail:
		- You manage to hide behind some cocoons, but as you rest you touch a spider's web by mistake. Tulah realizes you are there and prepares to attack you. At least, you have been able to rest a little, and now you have to defend yourselves.
* [Sylvie] "I can shoot the cobwebs and make her fall." (roll) (Sylvie [Ranged attack card])
	+ Success:
		- Sylvie's shots are accurate as always. Tulah falls to the ground, but does not take much damage. Even so, you are very motivated after seeing her fall.
		You get:  8
		Start **Tulah Boss Battle** with 4.
	+ Fail:
		- ?
* [Malukah] "I can try making a homemade antivenom potion." (roll) (Malukah [Skill card])
	+ Success: By extracting some venom from her snake's fang, Malukah creates a quick potion. You all drink the potion, and it seems to be a success. You feel a little more protected for this fight.
	Tulah realizes that you are there at that moment and the fight begins.
	You get:  8 and the heroes begin the fight with  2.
	+ Fail: ???
* [Zek] "I can keep them in place with a shadow binding spell." (roll) (Zek [Shadow spell card])
	+ Success: Zek chants some incomprehensible phrases, and the shadows in the room begin to move. When Tulah sees him, she goes down through the cobwebs to attack him, but it si too late and the shadows imprison her.
	You get  8.
	Enemies start the battle with  1.
	+ Fail: ???
* [Thuls] "Sss... I can dispatch that herder easily."
	+ Thuls vanishes into the shadows and quickly reappears behind the herder, finishing him off with a swift blow. After that, Tulah notices all of you and comes down from the cobwebs to fight.
	You get  8.
	Enemies start the battle without a Mutant.
* [Cornelius] "I'll burn everything to ashes"
	+ In a fit of dementia, Cornelius casts a spell that sets everything in the chamber on fire, including you.
	You get  4.
	+ Everyone (Heroes and Monsters) start with 7 burn.

**Tulah Boss Battle**

Enemies:

* Spider
* Mutant
* Tulah

**Death to the queen!**

After a tough fight, you finished off Tulah, the spider queen.

Now you will take a short break to regain strength and look for a way to get out of the cave. Also you need some time for the effects of the Tulah poison to wear off, little by little.

While you wait, you can open the cocoons of the dead adventurers captured by Tulah and search for useful items.

Choices:

* [Loot] Open the cocoons and rest for a while.
	+ You only open the cocoons in which you saw dead adventurers to make sure you do not have to face more spiders. After a while, you have a good amount of objects and gold. You choose the ones that suit you best and then rest for a while.
	You get: 300  12  3

* [Loot] (Requires Whispers in the shadow) Extract the venom from Tulah, loot the cocoons and rest.
	+ As the shadowy figure asked you to at the water mill, you extract the venom from Tulah and store it in a flask. You feel good about accomplishing this feat, and when you have the opportunity you will give the flask to him.
	You search for items and gold in the cocoons of dead adventurers and then you rest for a while.
	You get: 300  20  3
	All characters receive Honorable
	Thuls unlocked
	Choose from Spider Queen Eye, Venom Fang, 6 rare or epic items, or  100
