The Shaft

Provides access to the five levels, and is traversed by Ghost or the stairs along the side. Entry is through one of three Gates placed on the ledge outside each level, with a two gates at each individual Gate and a chamber between to prevent accidental sight by a visitor. The Ledges between each Level are used for impromptu meetings or parties, as well as the ones outside the Levels themselves. Outsiders are forbidden from here on pain of pain.
