Chapitre 361: 361. Hidden Passageway

"Don't you need light?" Galath asked as they went behind the stairs.

"I suppose I do," Mauve replied, realizing that she was still holding onto Galath. She let go of him and he grabbed the lamp from the wall.

There were no guards in sight but this was the ground floor, she was sure they weren't far away. There was no rule that said she could use the secret passageway, however, she was sure not a lot of people knew about it.

She walked in front of him and went behind the staircase, she didn't need light. She knew how to find the hidden pathway with her eyes closed.

Behind the staircase was a wall. She placed her palm over the bricks, she moved it around looking for the loose tile. It took a while to find, it must be because she hadn't used it in a while.

"What are you doing?" Galath asked, she could hear the mix between astonishment and concern in his voice.

"Just a moment," she said. "Aha! Found it."
