There was an obnoxious Chandelier hanging from the center of the ceiling, a carpeted semi-circled stairway, and alternating areas along the room where the settee benches were placed for comfort. It was on one of those benches Gia directed me to.
"Stay here," Gia commanded simply, a threatening undertone included, making me frown. "Or this time around, you will actually be exempted from the world and not just lost In a maze like I made it seem." with that she proceeded to abandon me, disappearing up the stairs.
Of course, she used voodoo on me, I lamented to myself. How else would the guards have suddenly disappeared and I kept walking in circles? I wasn't that stupid to just embark on a mission without noting the yards and passageways.
It was absolutely infuriating.
