Liv follows the sound of the noise

The agent's plan seemed to be working perfectly, as one of the Bravos quickly rushed in the direction of the noise. Liv tried to move as quietly as possible, so as not to alert their newfound guest, but she was frustrated, angry at Becky and not thinking entirely clearly. Her feet pounded against the stone passageways as she chased down the source of the noise.

Lady Dieudonne's agent dropped another pan rattling on the floor to draw her even closer, before retreating from the room, using a passage hidden in the wall to maneuver himself to safety and hopefully leaving Liv none the wiser.

Liv whirled around the corner, dashing into the room as she heard the second crash, only to find what looked to be a storage area for table-settings, completely empty and still. Rich tablecloths were carefully folded and stored, piles of dishes as well as silverware and glasses filled the shelves that lined the long room, stretching backward.

Out of the corner of her eye, Liv saw the faintest shift of movement, as the wall concealing the secret passage slid shut. It was the sort of subtle movement that almost anyone else would have missed, but which the sniper's keenly trained eyes just barely managed to detect. By the time she turned to look, however, the passageway was already sealed, looking simply like another stone wall.

With Liv now inside the room, investigating the strangely shifting wall, an agent behind her silently slid the door shut. A magical seal was activated over it, locking the door in place with powerful magics. It would be near impossible for the magic-less Liv to break out, even once she realized that she had been tricked.
