You are at the foot of a narrow spiral staircase that winds upwards into
the darkness. From the cobwebs streaming from floor to ceiling and wall to
wall, and from the thick coating of dust on the staircase steps, you get the
impression that this staircase may be all but forgotten. A dimly lit room
on the other side of the marble archway to the north casts eerie shadows
across the steps of the staircase.
Surrounding the area is a shimmering shield, distorting everything you see.
