The door is unlocked. Carefully you lift the latch and push it open, and, as the light from the corridor illuminates the darkness within, you see that the room contains two bunk beds and a few other pieces of plain pine furniture. Children’s toys, lovingly crafted from wood and bone, line the shelves. You are closing the door when you notice a wooden whistle lying on the top of a clothes trunk.

If you wish to keep this Whistle, mark it on your Action Chart as a Backpack Item.

If you wish to investigate the door on the opposite side of the corridor, turn to 243.

If you decide to investigate the door at the end of the corridor, turn to 287.
