Normally, I'd say something like that was obvious, but given that there are probably a lot of other Arachne among the Felfri monsters ... that might work in our favor. I like it.

Not that I expect that to happen, but I've been wrong before.
Not bad, not bad. [he smiled] All things considered, let's call all of this Dante's Inferno. Maybe not as many circles but ... plenty of monsters. And if you make it to the Arcade ... that could be Ready Player One. Or Ender's Game.
