[At first you may think you're still underground, as the walls around you are reminiscent of a cave. But a closer look reveals that everything here is artificial, and an opening leads to an elaborate sitting area. In fact, the further you explore, the more it becomes apparent that you're in a fantastical castle, like something out of a fairy tale, with carvings, murals and gilded decorations everywhere. There are plenty of windows to let in the light, and if you glance outside you'll find pristine mountainside as far as the eye can see. It really does feel like you're in a storybook. Is this real? Or is it a dream?

There's someone else here, too. Someone you've never seen before. A man dressed in full regalia rushes past you, clutching some folded papers in his hands. Follow him, and you'll spot him hiding them in secret compartments all around the castle. He doesn't seem to notice or care if you see him, as if he's just a ghost reliving his actions from the past. Finally, he'll retire to a chapel, where he kneels at the altar to pray. He still doesn't respond to you at all... maybe he's not the ghost here.]
