[ Of the four doors Dylan spies under, three more are closets - the fourth, furthest on the left and otherwise indistinguishable from the rest, hides the top of a downward staircase.
Or so it appears. Actually opening that door will tell a different story, the door opening onto a grand old library, dimly lit with well-spaced lamps on a couple of side tables. Through that library, on the opposite wall to the entry door, another door stands open a crack. Light glows from within.
Going back into the hall to test any other doors will present them with yet more closets. No matter how many times Dylan spies under the closed library door, it will always show the staircase, and no matter how many times they open it, it will always be the library. ]
