Having opened the large oak doors, you find yourself in a dark, dim mansion. As you enter, the doors behind you close, and you find yourself locked in. Walls of dark brick surround you, enshrouding you in a black abyss of darkness. Dim candle light is your only source of guide in this void of shadows. A tattered book sets atop an onyx pedestal, beside a black feather quillpen. In the ancient lettering, you can make out a small message. 'Please sign in.' Perhaps you should sign the guestbook before proceeding.

North to you, a large room, lit much better than the one you stand in.
