- Hahp and his new roommate step into the dark room, which grows darker when the door slams behind them. The door won't open again.
- The boys talk as they start to feel around the pitch-black room. Neither one can find a lamp, and strangely, neither one can find the other either.
- They count out their paces as they walk toward each other's voices… but they still can't reach each other.
- Finally a wizard opens the door. They see that they're in a narrow room with two cots. Which is totally weird, given that they'd been pacing for a long time trying to find each other, and yet neither one had bumped into any walls or the cots.
