This Way Up

You walk up, keeping your head about you. Soon, the slope turns to stairs, and a sign appears.

-HOLD ON TO THE SAFETY RAIL
by order of the King Himself

You notice the safety rail on the wall to your right, and take a firm grip. After a while of ascending the stairs, you hear a rumbling. The stairs behind you are starting to fall. Quickly, you begin to run upwards and away, keeping sure to hold on to the safety rail. You see a landing in front of you, and you have only one step between you and doom. Grabbing the safety rail with both hands, you shut your eyes tight and hope for the best. As your step falls, you are left hanging on the safety rail. Good thing you heeded the sign's warning.
