Proceed with caution, one step at a time. A wrong step has unfortunate
consequences:

  • Searing heat scorches thy skin
  • A speeding Rock hits you on the head
  • You are pinned down by the weight of the boulder
  • Pain lances through thee from a sharp metal blade

As you proceed the compass will show you the way forward, and the way
back.

When the forward arrow disappears, and only the way back is shown, you
have reached your destination. Step forward once more and make your way
to the room on your right.
