You need a giant waterspout

You are dragged deeper and deeper into the darkness. You can see nothing but blackness. You can feel the webs around you tighten even further as your body slowly swells, but they hold as if made of steel. After a time, a faint glow fills the passage, which slowly grows brighter. You see lights scurrying across the passageway, one coming close to your face. Giant fireflies?, you wonder as a huge insect with a glowing thorax passes by. You look around. This entire area is filled with these creatures, which makes them look more like moving lanterns. Speaking of this area, it's huge! The fireflies are all around, lighting what seems to be a giant cavern. Spiderwebs are everywhere, covering walls, as well as what look like rock formations. You gaze in amazement and wonder, not watching what the spiders are doing. Suddenly, you drop. the spiders have pulled you off a ledge, and you are falling into a huge pit. You close your eyes, bracing for impact...

Which doesn't come. Like a bungee cord, the webbing stops you with a springy shock. You open your eyes ... and scream in horror. Around and beneath you are the corpses and skeletons of human beings. The ones with flesh seem wihered and dry. You can only guess why. Your heart pounding, you look around some more. A giant spiders web, and in its center, a giant spider. "Well, well, well, what have we here?" You hear a voice say. "A plump and juicy werewolf. It has been a time since I have had such company. Some ages, I believe. You will make a small meal, of course, but a fine conversationalist. My minions are, shall we say, less talkative." What do I do?, you think frantically as your wrappings grow tighter. Maybe I can trick it somehow ... or maybe the truth would be better. Who knows, I might even be able to work out a deal or something. I'd better choose my words carefuly, though, or I'm spider chow.
