You soon arrive at the bottom of a spiral staircase; there seems to be no alternative but to climb it. After ascending over two hundred steps, you arrive at a long passage which ends at a balcony. Thirty feet below, you see Vonotar the Traitor standing in front of two Ice Barbarian warriors. He is placing a gold bracelet upon the wrist of one of them, and is unaware of your presence. There are no stairs from here to the chamber below, but there is a door at the end of the balcony.

If you have a Rope, you can climb down and attempt to capture him by turning to 100.

If you do not have a Rope, you can descend the spiral staircase by turning to 148.

If you prefer, you can investigate the door at the end of the balcony by turning to 61.
