The Door

Yulia looks at the door, "Out of curiousity... What would happen if I used Open on that door?" Yulia asks.

"Well... Level one would fail, level two would actually work, level 3 or onwards would definitely work. You would definitely open the door," Alide answers.

"Oh... I'm actually kind of surprised," Yulia answers but then tilts her head, "there's a catch isn't there,"

"Indeed. If you were to circumvent the rules and open the door that way. I and everyone else on this floor would be duty bound to kill you... As well the benefit you get from the door, would be lost anyway since the door would be closed again as soon as you were dead," Alide confirms.

Yulia swallows, "I see... What would Identify tell me about that door?" she asks.

"I'm not sure... Probably just that it holds a great treasure and you need nine keys to open it," Alide says with a shrug.

Yulia hesitates, "if I cast Identify to confirm, would I get in trouble?" she queries and Alide looks thoughtful for a few seconds and then shakes her head.

Yulia casts identify on the door.

"A mystical door that serves as one of the great mysteries and treasures of the Tower of Voices. It requires nine keys, gathered throughout the chosen's journey to open and the treasure it offers is a reward that transcends time and space..." the spell returns and Yulia blinks.

"Transcends time and space? What does that mean?" she questions and Alide looks noticeably confused.

"I don't actually know. I have only the faintest idea of what's behind that door. It's... Never been opened," Alide admits, "also to be clear... Not taking my services does not mean you would not be able to open that door, but moving forward without doing either would," she clarifies.

"Well it seems we decided to use your services anyway. One Utility spell, please," Yulia states cheerfully.

Alide smiles and presents a book and grins, "Oh my... Right at the end... It's almost like destiny," she says as she hands over the unlock spell tome.

"Now... Here comes the next question," Alide says and she seems suddenly a little nervous, "do you intend to obtain the final key and open this door?" Alide asks gesturing to the door behind her as at the same time Yulia feels a slight tug and then the eight vials of semen she had previously collected float out from her inventory and slot themselves into eight of the nine slots in the door.

"If you say yes... You will be locked in to facing the monster of this floor, but if you succeed, which I believe you will, you will be the one to finally open this door and receive the gift within," Alide clarifies.

"If you say no... you will be free of the floor monster on this floor which will ease your passage, but will also mean you will not be able to open the door," Alide adds.

"Make your choice," she says.
