The Withered Vine Covered Door
After walking through a series of tall bookshelves, you reach the withered vine-covered door on the right. When you try turning the intricate doorknob, you realize the room is locked. Looking around, you see an inscription on the top of the door that reads, “The stars will guide your way.” You’ve always felt a firm connection to the stars, but as you look around the walls, shelves, and floor, you only feel disconnected. There’s minimal light and more scattered paper than anything else in the room. After what feels like hours of searching, you begin to wonder if you should give up. At that moment, you recall that the pristine book you saw on the table in front of you earlier was titled Celestial Guidance.
Do you return to the table in hopes that this book can provide the answers you need?
Or do you continue searching the current area for the key?
