Castle Stairwells

High Elf Territory Stairwells

Bomo locates two open forest stairwells near the castle and one locked basement stairwell tied to Queen Imogen's boss status.

Story so far

Bomo's floor-wide stair sense identifies three exits in high-elf territory. Two stand alone in the woods and should resist Bramble until nearly the last moment; crawler groups guard both while the elves temporarily leave them alone.

The third lies in the castle's expansive basement and remains locked, confirming Queen Imogen as a boss whose defeat should open it. Thousands of other crawlers descend through the temporary settlement's stairwell before the brambles arrive.

Appearance

Two forest stair portals and one sealed basement stairwell beneath a massive white castle.

Role

The stair network supplies escape contingencies and confirms the boss-linked route inside the castle.

Relationships

Bomo — His ability finds all three.

Queen Imogen — Her boss status keeps the basement stair locked.

The High Elf Castle — One exit sits inside its basement and two nearby.

Gehenna Bramble — The standalone exits remain clear until near floor end.
