You slowly look around this room. You need to find something...

The room has luxurious furnishings typical of the aristocracy of the city of Gerzifa... Expensive silver candlesticks, elegant patterned carpets, furniture made of expensive sandalwood...

You carefully approach the left wall. With the usual movement of your hand, you strongly press on one of the sections of the wall, which is located slightly higher than your height and which is partially covered with a wall carpet.

You feel that after your impact a grinding sound is heard. A small part of the wall moves away. You squeeze into the resulting passage in the wall. You are moving through this hidden passage. You make another move, pulling the hidden lever, and you close the passage in the wall behind you.

You walk through this hidden passage for about 10 minutes. you have to climb stairs. Finally you reach a large iron-clad door. You knock on this door with your fingers.

One knock... Pause... Two knocks... Pause. One knock...

Almost every detail of this woman’s external image is capable of delivering aesthetic pleasure to an outside observer: dark eyebrows, large green eyes, upturned nose, appetizing scarlet lips, slender legs...

You bow and greet her: “Hello, illustrious Lady Italena...”

This beautiful aristocratic woman answers you with a laugh: “In the name of the gods, Leila! At least here you don’t have to use your official manner of speech! We are not at a sermon in the temple or at a coronation ceremony! Ha! Ha! And my husband is now far from this room... Yes, His Excellency the noble Farentar Eridis, governor of the city of Gerzifa, now sees neither me nor you... And I am very happy about this! This beautiful secret room is separated from the rest of the citadel by stone walls thicker than than my height! And there is no other way to get into this room except for the hidden secret passage through which you came here... Therefore, let's get down to the very thing for which I ordered you to come..."
