Round 19:
With the mummy's attack imminent, you swiftly dodge its lunge, narrowly avoiding its grasp. As you regain your balance, you gather your magical energy and counter with a powerful spell. Arcane energy crackles in the air as your spell collides with the mummy, momentarily stunning it. Seizing the opportunity, you press your advantage and continue to unleash a barrage of spells, weakening the mummy's defenses. However, the mummy's ancient power proves resilient, and it retaliates with a devastating strike. The force of the blow sends you flying across the chamber, leaving you battered and vulnerable. What will you do next?
1. Summon your last reserves of strength and continue the fight.
2. Attempt to retreat from the chamber and seek safety.
3. Use a healing spell to mend your wounds and regain your strength.
Choose wisely, adventurer. The mummy's curse tightens its grip.
{Your choice: 1, 2, or 3}
