Inside the maids room is dark and grey.  It is much different from the rest of the Castle which has grand walls and floors and paintings from famous painters around the wall.  The maid holds many secrets in this room.  One which is a secret door that holds paintings she should not have.

the high priest, reading an arcane book
painter
I was hired to paint a portrait of the noblewoman the king would eventually marry. It seems that the painting was too flattering and when the king lifted the veil, he was very angry. I have been imprisoned for four long years. I had a wife and six children, but they do not wait for me to return. I turn my agony into art.
Well this isn't to bad of a room to be imprisoned in now is it? It may be dark and grey, but alas, there are secrets to be found! I? I am not imprisoned, good man. I am the High Priest! But I am imprisioned, for four long years! And yet you are a painter? For what reason are you imprisoned?  I was hired long ago to paint a portrait for the king. It seems the painting was to flattering for the king, (it was of his wife to be) And instead of paying me he took me as prisinor! But this is an outrage! How can I assist you?  I would love to be at my own free will again, but now my wife and 6 children want nothing to do with me. All becuase I am a master painter. But surely you were making a good living for them?  Of coarse, but now, I cannot. They will not even talk to me. They have imprisoned me in the room, with famous paintings that I did not do! Tell me, did all these painters get imprisioned to? I dunno but if I were you, I'd claim that I did them and sell them on your release Can you help me do that? Well I am a priest and technically not supposed to think of worldly thing but - shall we say ten percent commision?
