You reached a pair of crooked iron gates, one of then hanging off of its hinges, allowing you into the garden beyond. The garden didn't look any better, it was full of dead weeds and other withered plants. In the center of the place, there was a broken down mansion that had seen better days.

Carefully edging down the garden the place looks like an abomination, everything is quite dead and long gone, Tantei takes a look at the giant building, well this should be it.

I go up the stair case

The garden didn't look any better, it was full of dead weeds and other withered plants. In the center of the place, there was a broken down mansion that had seen better days. When you knocked, the door creaked open with the force of your knocks. It seemed like this mansion had been abandoned and nobody was home - inside, you could see a pair of broken down double doors to your left, a pair to your right, and straight ahead, a grand staircase that had seen better days. A dusty old lamp sat on the banister of the staircase, somehow it is lit.

"Hello?" I call, walking over to the lamp to see how it's lit. "Is anyone here?"


((My 'E' and 'P' key are now messed up))

Yes, indeed, this should be it. You stood there looking at the house and noticed that there was a small light coming from between the cracks of the broken front doors.

It was very, very dark, and you couldn't see without a light.

((That's fine, even if you mess up, as long as I can make out what you wanted to say it's okay.))

Silence, no reply. The lamp was lit by a candle, and it burned brightly, throwing a halo of light outwards over a small area, but beyond that, everything was pitch black.

It may have been your mind, but... Is that a child's laughter you hear coming from upstairs?

It's free standing of the banister, so you pick it up no problem. It feels old, but sturdy and the candle inside is burning brightly, throwing out a small halo of light. It was enough to light a very small section around you, but anything more and you only see vague shapes of doors.

I begin to head upstairs, towards where I heard the sounds of laughter.

The path lead to a pair of solid metal sliding doors, the were open. Beyond that, a road leading straight.

Velos decided to follow the road until he found something he recognized.

You make it up to the second landing, where two corridors stretch out to forwards and to the right. To the left, a pair of grand double doors. The laughter seemed to have come from the first door on the right in the corridor going forwards.

You follow the path and after some time, you step on something that makes a loud cracking sound. To your left, you hear a shape intake of breath, almost as if in fear.
