Let's play a text-based adventure game. I'll be your guide.

You are caught upside-down in a sticky web of silk three feet off the ground. After looking around trying to think of a way out of this predicament, you notice that your trusty boot knife has fallen to the ground. If you stretch your arm far enough, you might be able to pick it up and free yourself.

An old boot knife lies on the ground, just within reach.
