The stairwell at the far end of the gaol-hall immediately dog legs, sending you upward again, but at a much lower grade than the stair from the catacomb to gaol.
As you near the top of the stair, Cirion can hear... something.
After a moments pause to take it in, it sounds like one or more people working at something. A rapid hollow clack of metal on wood, a dull grating sound like wood being rubbed against metal, and the soft sounds of movement of small cloth and wooden parcels.
The room beyond the top of the stair is flickering with fire light. So you know that once you emerge, if anyone's gaze is even casually falling upon the doorway to the stair, you will not be able to remain unnoticed.
