"What? Who goes there? Who are you?" The wizard, a man of indeterminate age clad in a flowing grey and blue robe, starts from his chair, brandishing a thick staff at you.

You glance around wildly, looking for a way out. Nothing. Behind you, the door you came through is now solid stone. There are two other exits, a large ironbound door, and a smaller, oaken door. Unfortunately, they are both past the wizard. The rest of the room is no help. Thick bookshelves crammed with tomes, large comfortable armchairs before a fireplace that roars with blue flame, the scent of pipesmoke in the air... No, there is nothing here to help you. This is the wizard's domain. But there is one chance. If this is who you believe him to be, you might be able to reason with him.

Frantically, you explain who you are and how you came to be there. He stops, lowering the staff. "Oh. I see. One of them." He sighs and leans the staff against the wall. "I don't suppose you were planning to leave soon?" You shake your head mutely, unsure what this unpredictable mage may do. Banish you to a lower hell, or simply turn you to a frog?

He does neither. Instead, he beckons you towards the large door. "Well, if I can't get rid of you yet, I may as well show you around. That is what you came here for, isn't it?" You nod, your spirits rising. So far, this encounter has gone almost as you had expected, from the tavern tales you had heard. The fierce attitude of the wizard startled you though, but if that door leads where you think it does, this can only be one place.

The Castle of Halls...

The door swings inwards silently and smoothly, revealing a long, dark hallway. The wizard steps through, and you follow, though a bit apprehensively. This hallway is obviously magical. For one thing, the walls shimmer with a faint blue glow. For another, you've seen the outside of the castle... It's really a tower. There could only be enough space for rooms like the one you left behind, not corridors like this... So it has to be magical.

Ahead you see several doors.....
