Barely

A bit of luck was on your side as you step away, one of the drider's long, thin, black legs planting itself in the ground where you were previously standing. You can't help but look up to get a better view of your attacker, before fully turning to run.

The drider's top half is relentlessly beautiful, a topless and busty woman with a fair face. Only the snarl across her mouth and the inky black shade of her nipples betray her disappointment and inhuman nature, and through the snarl you can see a pair of large fangs, dripping with the same green ichor that fell on your shoulder. From the waist down, however, her body is that of a monstrous spider. Eight black legs extend from a bulbous center, easily four feet in length, long enough for her to tower over you if you were on even footing. A heavy mass extends out from the back of her spider form, a sack for her combined webbing and eggs.

You manage to make it through the door in time to prevent capture, but she is still chasing you, **** to wedge her body inside the passageway and so not able to move at full speed. You're gaining a bit of ground, but after only a few seconds you're back in the room with the well, and the drider is still in pursuit.

You look around frantically for options, but eventually come to the conclusion that simply continuing is your best bet, and dodging around the well in the middle of the room, you manage to make it out of sight of the drider entirely as you run into the far corridor, and though you're aware that she'll know exactly where you've gone, it still provides a small amount of hope. The other passage cuts off to the right, just as the witch said it would, and you slide in and make your way down another slanted passageway.

It opens up into a cavern that's very similar to the one where you met the witch, though with a significant difference. The bottom appears to open up into another wide cavern, and at the bottom you see a pool as the witch had mentioned, which can only properly be described as appearing sickly. Tinted a pale green color, several pieces of loose debris float at the surface, pushed around by an unseen ****. Near the edges, the ground turns to a sheer black color, as if the rock itself was eaten away and burned into a different material entirely.

There are two other exits from the cavern, spaced evenly around the circle. On your right, the ground appears to slant downwards, leading in a ramp down towards the tainted lake, and to the left, an opening simply leads into darkness. You think that it'd be possible to hide just underneath the floor line if you head to the right, or you could take your chances with the left, but you can clearly still hear the sounds of the drider in pursuit, and it sounds as if she's gaining.
