Ursula remained on the base of the statue long enough for her eyes to adjust to the dark cavern underground. By the stream of sunlight coming through the place where the statue was, she could see a lantern on the ground. Ursula grabbed it and turned the knob. Light filled the room as the statue was rising up to the ground. The cavern was made of stone and was quite large. There was a small family alter facing a large portrait of the current Windpipers. Surrounding this were smaller pictures of the rest of the family. There was a large oriental rug in the middle of the room on which a table was standing on, surrounded by chairs. A large tapestry hung down to the floor on one side of the room and a bookshelf and couch was in a corner. Ursula had discovered the room with her cousins, Piper and Peter. They were twins and lived in Newhaven Portmouth Upon the Sea. They were the same age as Ursula and were very mischievous. Peter had boosted Piper on the shoulders of the god so they could get their kite. It gave them all a scare to see the statue sink but made good use of the chamber in the ground. Last year when Ursula had fled to the chamber to escape her uncle, she had discovered a ladder going up to the hollow of the statue. It was to the ladder that Ursula went to. She climbed up so she was in the statue and looked out the statue's eyes. Her uncle was searching the garden not to far from her. Ursula hurried down the ladder and lifted a corner of the tapestry. It revealed 5 doors, or rather tunnels. Ursula glanced to the ladder then ducked into the second entrance, taking the lantern with her. Ursula hurried down the narrow tunnel, holding up her skirts with her free hand. The tunnel got narrower as she went along but Ursula kept her pace. At last she slowed down when she got to a heavy engraved wooden door. Ursula put her ear up to the crack. Hearing nothing, she cautiously cracked open the door.
