This magnificent hall must have once served a purpose. A few armless, headless statues, still sporting their beards, stand majestically amidst the cracked flagstones and hammered bas-reliefs.

A grand corridor supported by imposing columns seems to lead to a significant source of light: the outside world. You have no reason to leave for the moment. Multiple arrow slits illuminate the corridors you are in, and you assume that the Dwarves' ingenious mirroring devices, concealed between the ancient stone walls, still allow light to penetrate to the deepest galleries beneath the mountain.

Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

Before you, three ascending corridors branch off in different directions. Will you take the one on the left at 566, the central one at 507, or the one on the right at 577?
