[quote=YamiCuoreLaroux] Stefan is a bit surprised at the creature's action, but carefully accepts the book. He turns to the doorway, but stops to look back at the creature for a moment before leaving. "Thank you," he whispers. Turning back to the door, Stefan makes his way over and prepares to walk into the unknown. He takes a good look at the book in his hands, wondering what it is. [/quote] the book is small and leather bound without any title or outward marking aside from an odd symbol where the title would be, the paper appears to actually be vellum, animal skins gone through a process similar to paper which allows for easier writing. the hallway ends in a simple room with a statue of a crying maiden holding her dead child in the middle, an engraving on the plinth upon which it rests, if stefan were to go to read it, he'd find it to say "dedicated to all those that have fallen on their trial. the grandmaster wishes you luck young initiates." however there is no other exit save for the one he came through, but that one closes behind him as he enters
