The stout oaken door is bound by thick studded ironwork. A smaller door is set into its left hand side. Hannah pauses before it, closes her eyes for a moment, and takes a deep breath.

"Unbend! Reform! " Her breath hisses out with the words and her eyes open and glow with an eerie green light as she passes her hand across the keyhole in the door. She smiles as a faint scraping sound reaches her ears.
