	You stagger to your feet and climb the spiral steps 
Š	until you come to a landing where several corridors 
Š	converge. Some of these corridors are occupied by 
Š	gaolers and other officials of Sesketera's citadel 
Š	who are going about their duties. Then you hear the 
Š	sound of footsteps ascending the stairs behind you, 
Š	and this sound reminds you of the pressing need to 
Š	keep moving. You draw upon your Magnakai disciplines 
Š	of Huntmastery and Pathsmanship to help you choose 
Š	the best route of escape and, to your surprise, in 
Š	doing so you discover a secret panel in the wall at 
Š	the head of the stairwell. You reach out and press a 
Š	raised stud and the concealed panel slides open to 
Š	reveal a narrow passageway beyond. Quickly you enter 
Š	this passage before your pursuers appear, and the 
Š	panel automatically clicks shut behind you.
