Turning and running into the tall thick grass had the desired effect that you so hoped for. The Runespoor slithered forward after you, fangs bared and all three heads hissing threateningly.

The use of several Engorgio charms worked rather well the blades of grass shooting up higher then your head and very thick before the weight of it began to make it tip over.

Hissing could be heard from the Runespoor but it sounded more annoyed at not being able to see you now. It's tongues flicked out of its mouths tasting the air once again in search of where you are.

The blades of grass began to harden, turning into stone from your Duro spell. There was noway that the Runespoor was fitting through those slots between the stone bars, though he was certainly trying, bashing its heads into the bars and hissing angrily at you.

You have managed to subdue the serpent!

With the beast contained, a Ministry offical from the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, whom was standing beside the door the entire time, disillusions herself. Seeing that you have subdued the creature, she gives you a smile and goes to check on the Runespoor.

The red door opens silently, revealing the way out. Walk through the doorway and you will find yourself at the stands.
