The woman points at you. Uncertain what she is doing and pretty
scared, you back away slowly. Sparkling sand shoots from her
fingers. This sand is not any color known to you. The sand swirls
around you like a twister. You are stunned for a brief moment. When
you come back to your to your senses, the twister of sand stops
swirling around you and returns to the woman in the cape. She
disappears. You notice no change. You turn around to see a ladder
going up to the room above you and a slide pole going to the room
below you. Which path will you
take?
