As you make your way up the polished spiral staircase, the spirals become tighter. Once you finally reach the top, you see the entrance to a hallway.

The hallway is surprisingly well-lit, with natural sunshine streaming in from an unseen window. The walls are painted over with a beautiful mural, depicting myths of the goddess Athena.

You finally reach the end of the hallway and find a door. It is large, with a golden knocker and handle. You turn the handle and walk inside.

French windows with light gauzy curtains surround the midnight-blue walls. Ravenclaw hangings drop down from the ceiling. Comfortable, elegant armchairs occupy one area, while a ballet barre occupies another. The fire sits under a beautiful white mantle. Your shoes clack over the polished wooden floors. A writing desk is pushed against a nearby wall.

But the thing that strikes you the most are the books. Shelves and shelves and shelves and shelves full of books line the walls.

A snowy owl sits perched on the windowsill.

Welcome to Athena's room.
