Genius Room Security Door

A sturdy wooden door reinforced with iron bindings, separating the Genius Room from the outer complex. Its frame bears fresh stress fractures from forced entry and exit, the hinges groaning under Urak’s repeated use. Dust and splinters cling to the latch where Mel’s failed defiance once pressed against it, her resistance leaving faint imprints in the grime. The door’s heavy slab swings ponderously on its hinges, resisting closure even as Urak seals it behind him—its weight a silent testament to the chamber’s volatile energies within.
