The woman grabs your arm with an iron grip and leads you away. As you gaze backward, you see the lion headed man and the lizard, the lion appears filled with feline laughter, and the lizard, it seems, with reptile sympathy.

Once she has reduced your flesh to thin fibers, she begins spinning thread from it.
