You quickly duck into some shadows and look up to see Belladona, the vice warden.She's walking slowly, as if she's stalking someone. You decide to wait until she leaves until you hear her speak. "I know you're here somewhere Wade. I was just at your cell and you weren't there. Don't worry though, I'll find you really soon."
She continues to patrol the area slowly. At one point her tail swings dangerously close to you. It was the tail of a scorpion and one bit of that poison and your as good as dead. You silently curse. Why did so many of these damn guards have to be made of more than one animal?! As if she heard you, she gets down on all fours and starts searching lower on the ground. As a manticore, her body is lion-like, so it makes her look like she's on the prowl. Once again she comes close to your position. You hold your breath and stand as still as you can. Does she find you?
