Running away

I had been led to believe that if you tried to retreat before interacting with the beasties, you would always manage it, but Talis has been killed twice now, and attacked several times when entering an area, and immediatly fleeing.

Is this a, a bug,
b, a new thing,
or c, the curse of curiosity in exploring places he knows he can't fight?

I can't replicate your bug.

Should possibly have been more specific, this is an intermittant thing, sometimes whole days of running away screaming will pass without anything getting a claw in!

I can recall mabye once or trice where I was not able to flee from first contact with an enemy. I believe it occured once under the dundee inn, or possibly once against a boss monster underground somewhere. Sorry i'm being vague. It hasn't been a problem which disruted me enough to make me realize it coulda been a bug. I don't retreat all that much :)

Admittedly, I'm new, but the only thing I've ever been unable to run away from immediately was those big hulking demons and bloody champions. They would squish me when I tried... I assumed it was related to dexterity, and the speed of my retreat was nothing compared to their high level of badness.
