Next door?

Go up.

Not wanting to meet anyone any time soon you take the second door and head up the stairs as quietly as possible. After a turn and a second set of stairs you are in a carpeted hallway with pictures of people along the wall, they look painted, “Neat.” Quickly looking around it would seem there are 4 bedrooms if you had to guess, a study, a library, and a bathroom. 3 of the bedrooms are locked but the fourth is open.

Again you do a quick survey of the rooms to see what you can. Listening to each door you hear snoring coming from a locked door, and two men talking in another. The last locked door is quite. The open bedroom is full of clothes for a large man, but otherwise uninteresting, although you do find a leather satchel with a broad soft strap that you stuff your food into, as well as a small jade statuette of a cat that is cute and seems valuable.

The library is somewhere you could surely spend hours and possibly gain valuable insight on what is going on and how you got wherever here is, but sadly that seems like a great way to get captured. “Ya, don't want to see what they do to an escaped **** that killed the cook.” However you do seem drawn to a drawer that you have to pry open with your knife. Inside you find a tube with two scrolls that you can hardly believe yourself as the odd words somehow tell you that they are spells. One turns the reader and all they carry into an animal for up to eight hours. The second summons a huge snake that will go on a rampage killing anyone living it sees for like two minutes, then vanishes. “Whoa, that sounds scary.”

The study proves to be a great find. Lots of taxidermy animals as well as several spears and strong, to strong in fact, bows on display as well as another huge heavy rifle. All cool but useless. However breaking into a desk drawer you find an old but in good shape single action revolver, much like a colt peacemaker, which you recognize, yet can't quite put a finger on the fading memory of your old life. “I can't say I remember liking guns, but you are one sexy bitch.” You say as you look it over and discover it is loaded with six rounds of .45 caliber bullets. You don't find a holster, but you do find a belt that you cut several inches off of, and make new holes, but it works to hold the gun and a pouch you find that contains three more bullets, a cleaning brush and oil, a rag, and what you think might be a bullet mold and some kind of clamp for reloading bullets. No powder or anything like that, but still it seems very much worth taking.

The last room you check is the bathroom, there is nothing worth taking, but a missing bar on the window and your tiny frame makes you think you can get to the ledge outside, it would be a hell of a fall, but if there is a way down it might be an escape. Then again you can't help but think the gun could get you in any door. It would alert everyone, but it is an option.

Where to next?
