The arrow did not go astray. It did not, however, seem to slow the nurse down much. It protruded from her left shoulder, just below her collarbone, and she didn't even glance at it as she gained speed. She reached out both arms and lunged, trying to grab the bow.

That might have gone better if she hadn't been holding pieces of wood in her hands, but she could hit hard with them, and even if she couldn't take the bow, she could do some damage to the hands aiming it.
