บท 1848: Unkept Garden

I stepped on the last stair and what seemed to be a circular hallway appeared in front of me. It is huge with seven big runic doors and three sets of stairs that go up. 

There is no one in the hallway; it is completely dark and empty of any person. I could hear the faint noises of fighting, but they are coming from the above floors; I have no intentions to go there before I checked what is inside these runic doors.

I entered the hallway and looked at the doors; of seven doors, runes are visible on the four doors while invisible on the three.

I checked one door after another, especially runic doors. Two runic doors did not have a complete runic design on them, one of them even half broken. I am not going to waste my time on them; I have barely survived one broken gate; I do not want to take chances with others as long as it is not necessary.
