### 137

With Shan the merchant hot on your heels, you dash up the stairs which lead to a small landing. There are two exits. The left exit is blocked by a heavy wooden door. To the right is an open archway leading into a narrow corridor. In the distance, you can hear the sound of screams and falling masonry. The ground below your feet trembles.

'Which way?' asks Shan.

If you have the Magical Power of Prophecy and wish to use it, turn to 92. (Note down this section number first, as you will need to return to it afterwards.)

If you wish to take the left exit, turn to 142.

If you would prefer to turn to the right, turn to 163.
