Slow to a walk?

Yes

You slow down, still wary of pursuit, but able to take in much more of your surroundings without running face first into a tree.

Something shimmers slightly in your peripheral vision, just above the ground.

You stop and look more closely, quickly identifying it as a thin strand of silk catching the sunlight passing through the trees. Now that you know what to look for, you see more lines stretched between the trees beyond, and you realise what this is.

They trapped the forest. If you had kept running, you would have been sent flying by the tripwire and been caught in the higher up web further back. From there, you might have been able to get free before the Arachne who set it up got there, but it would probably be close.

You move around the trap and deeper into the woods, now moving much more slowly, on the lookout for further traps.

What's next?
