Only to be attacked a minute later by something akin to horned capybaras on speed. Each time you got up, they'd ram your shins right from under your ass. The disgrace of being on the wrong end of the universe's sense of humour makes one wonder why one goes out adventuring at all. Being battered and overrun by vermin while you're dying more of shame than of wounds? Not in the brochures, dude.
