This was the entry room, then? It looked smaller than the map made it seem. Ignoring the brief bout of dizziness she felt upon entering, Rita took a few cautious steps into the room, shining her flashlight around on the oddly-arranged furniture. The chairs and couches looked to be positioned to allow for large conversations. Maybe that was practical, but weren't entry rooms supposed to be more spacious than this?

The mage had only taken a few steps forward when she suddenly stopped in her tracks, her flashlight pointing straight ahead. The wall across from her was mostly bare, save for some abstract art hung to fill up space. Something was very wrong with that wall.

"What the..." After staring for a moment to confirm what she was seeing, Rita whipped her head around to face Howl, expecting that he would know what was going on here. "There's no door! This is supposed to be the way out, isn't it!?"

Shifting the flashlight to her other hand, Rita dug around in her pocket and retrieved the folded maps she had stuffed inside. The girl violently shook the map open, then raised it for Howl to see. "Look! Isn't this..." She trailed off as her mind started racing in search of possible explanations. "... Don't tell me this map is a fake."
