Leading down to the next level is a black cast-iron spiral staircase. Through a small window in the south side the moonlight glitters across the surface of an inky black sea. The warm sea air carries a faint smell of various spices from the market near bye. Dark wooden benches go around one half of the room on which are scattrered bright multi-coloured cushions. A bookcases line a part of the wall full of leather bound novels and other books. In the middle of the room is a simple crystal vase on a small table. In the vase is a single perfect white rose. Next to it is a bowl containing perfect freshly picked peaches, kumquats and oranges. A full sized concert grand harp sits ready to be played but there is no music stand. Mounted on the bare sandstone walls are originals of Edward Hoopers 'Nighthawks' and Rossetti's 'Prosperine' and an large old silvered mirror. ~ 0 8|16384 3 D5 ~ A black cast iron spiral staircase~ 0 0 18009 T midgaard~ $n vanishes suddenly~ You feel yourself being torn apart~ 16384 3001 0 S #18001 A Large Circular Bedroom~ A large four poster bed dominates this large bedroomon set on a wooden platform.

On the back of the door is a hook with two dressing gowns hanging on it. Facing you is doorway which opens out to a small balcony; the curtains tied back so as to sway less in the breeze.
