<p dir="auto">This is the lair of Medusa; her stare has the power to turn you to stone! Although I am, er...mysteriously protected, none of you are safe. Now listen very carefully. You can look at Medusa for a very short time before her terrible powers take effect. You must therefore take it in turns to guide Alex out of this room. When I touch your shoulder look at the magic mirror and give your directions. But when I take my hand away be sure to cover your eyes immediately! Do you understand?</p>
