[Queen of Swords]

Damn it, unmarked doors.

Try the one to the right?

[JourneymanN00b]

Vote recognized, Chris Redfield will try the door to the right.

260
The door is locked. You will not be able to go in. You turn and set off down the hallway. Will you enter a room on the right (turn to 113) or will you carry on along the hallway (turn to 316)?

Please vote before 8:30 PM PST to guarantee that it will be counted.

[Queen of Swords]

Okay, try the door opposite/the room on the right (same number) then.

[JourneymanN00b]

Vote registered, Chris Redfield will enter a room on the right.

113
The room you enter is a reception room. A table and six chairs stand in the centre of the room. At one end is an enormous mural of a country scene, perhaps painted of the area, many years ago. On the opposite wall, stretching from the floor to the ceiling, is a full-length mirror. Velvet curtains line the wall opposite the door. You walk over to admire the painting, then turn to face the mirror. A shock is in store. Your eyes widen as you turn towards the mirror and stare into it. It casts no reflection of you! Add 1 FEAR point. You walk closer to the mirror but still no reflection appears although you can see the table and the wall behind you clearly. You walk right up to it and feel its surface. Your hand passes right through the glass! Pulling it back quickly, you consider the situation. Will you leave this room (turn to 131), step through the mirror (turn to 160) or investigate the room further (turn to 324)?

Investigate the room further.

So, we have no reflection because it isn't a mirror? Scary?

The underside of the table forms a closed box, and this arouses your suspicions. You knock on it. It is hollow. Perhaps it is a secret compartment? You feel around underneath, and sure enough, your fingers find a small catch which releases a hidden drawer. Inside this drawer is a leather box. But wait! What is that noise? You can hear footsteps outside the door. You will have to hide quickly. Will you grab the case and take it with you (turn to 147) or will you leave it behind and close the drawer (turn to 100)?

[Queen of Swords]

We didn't go to all that trouble to leave our find. Take it with us and hide.

[Beroli]

Grab the box.

So, we have no reflection because it isn't a mirror? Scary?

It's been hours since we talked to a painting, whyever aren't we inured to the supernatural yet?

[Darth Rabbitt]

Take the potential plot coupon with us.

Dive through the mirror.

[Beroli]

Go through the mirror.

[Queen of Swords]

Much as I would love to hide behind the curtains and pretend to be the Balthus room's zombie, I'll go with the mirror plan as well.

[Thaluikhain]

Walk into the room behind the mirror.

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered, Chris Redfield will quickly dive through the mirror.

You grab the box and walk up to the mirror. You put your hand through again and pull it back. It seems safe enough. You step through … just in the nick of time, for as you disappear into the mirror, you hear the door open behind you. You find you are in a small room behind the mirror. You decide to open the leather box. Inside is a Golden Key, which you put in your pocket. Now turn to 160.

160
Behind the mirror is a small chamber, just large enough for you to turn around in. There are two doors in the chamber. Do you want to try the left-hand door (turn to 92) or the right-hand door (turn to 294)? Or would you rather step back through the mirror (turn to 349)?

[Beroli]

Take the right-hand door.

[Darth Rabbitt]

Agreed.

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered, Chris Redfield will try the right-hand door.

294

The door is locked. If you have any keys with you, you may try them in the lock. Do you have a Golden Key? If so, you can try it by turning to 10. If not, turn to 204.

Chris Redfield does have a Golden Key.

10

The Golden Key fits the lock and turns. The door opens to let you into another small room. The dust and cobwebs suggest that this room is very rarely used, and it certainly looks fairly uninteresting. But in the thick dust on the floor, you notice one footprint, then another. Someone has been in here recently! The footprints lead towards the right-hand wall, around the door. Behind a loose stone in the wall, you find what it was that this visitor came to hide – a large cast-iron key. You pick it up and examine it. It is heavy and fairly crudely made, and has the number 27 cast into it. You put this in your pocket. Nothing else of interest seems to be in the room, but you may add 2 LUCK points for this find. Now you must leave the chamber. Turn to 204.

204
Do you wish to try the other door (turn to 92) or would you prefer to step back through the mirror (turn to 349)?
