"Do you think it was the wrong lever?" says Bimpnott when Umbril suggests there could be other moving parts to the griphon.

And then, to Albrecht, "Salt. Right, salt. The salt that is used for food and keeping spirits away. That salt."

He looks in his backpack, then back at the dwarf. "I didn't bring it."

Bimpnott moves into the adjoining entryway, only looking briefly at the open stairway, and again moves the Griffons arm. Again you hear the slight rumble scrape and, for those still in the Tea room, a previously hidden panel moves to reveal a short hallway.

It is a short passage, covered in decaying plaster, leading to, apparently, another blank wall.

[Neurotic]

"I cannot seem to make it open."
Umbril retreats from the passage.
"Maybe someone can do better?"
