She stepped forward and pressed herself against the wards, half-expecting to find herself frozen and helpless again, at least until someone could be bothered to come and push herself back into the room. A tingle ran over her body, but nothing attempted to stop her from leaving, even though she could feel enough magical energy to paralyse an entire army crawling through the air.

It was a stylised reflection of the male form – it had muscles on its muscles, as well as an exaggerated groin – but it was nothing more than a distraction. She reached around the statue’s head and pushed a single isolated stone in the wall. A moment later, she heard grinding and a dark passageway appeared in front of her.
