Elisabeth's heart was still pumping of adrenaline as she crawled down the narrow spiral staircase. Every few steps there was a lamp radiating a dimmed yellow light...
.
(Elisabeth) I can't believe that worked... My mom was surprisingly helpful.
.
Elisabeth recalled her mother slowly opening the trapdoor, signaling me to sneak in...
.
(Elisabeth) Sometimes I hate my mom. But she has always been there for me when I need her. I know she tries to help me out the best she can, although it doesn't always seem that way...
.
(Elisabeth) *Sigh*...
.
Elisabeth listened if they were following her... Nothing. Elisabeth was still wondering if her mother would be okay...
.
(Elisabeth) What is my next move? The house is probably being monitored from the outside. I don't know how many men Mr.Bourton actually brought with him, so I can't bet on escaping that easily...
.
(Elisabeth) Maybe I can find some clues to why they are here in my father's office? Hopefully they haven't found it yet...
.
She finally reached the end of the staircase. In front was a moldy wooden door.
.
(Elisabeth) This door will lead me into the wine cellar. The wine cellar has a couple of possible paths I could take to navigate.
.
The first one to the left, led to the combustion room. The door to the right lead to an exit, that would take her down to the small river nearby.
.
The mansion was located on the border of a forest, and was situated fairly high up on a hill. The river ran down at the left side of the mansion, opposite to the forest.
.
(Elisabeth) I can't leave through here yet. Not until I find out what these people want...
