> Ask about the orange.
"So why're you all orange?" you ask Justice while you search the room.
Justice groans. "Ugh, I can't get this gunk off of me. I was making my way through this place and some orange blob attacked me. When I woke up after, I was here."
"An orange blob? Like that puddle over there?" you ask.
Justice turns to look and yelps. "Gah! Yeah, that's the one. Don't get near it, okay? They're mean little suckers." She keeps her distance from it.
> Check the vent.
There's a vent in the wall. There's a ladder nearby. You don't have to be a mathematical genius to see how this adds up. You point it out to Justice.
"Oh, hey!" she says. "Yeah, let's get on that."
Justice moves the ladder over to the vent and pries the grate off. Before you can say anything else, she's off like a shot.
> Check the map.
You make to climb the ladder too, but the map catches your eye - it's setting off your finely-honed thieves' sense.
You peel the map off the wall. There's a safe behind it. It looks like a pretty easy one to crack, but you're wary of how quickly you might get caught by whoever is coming to 'check' on you.
You take a moment to decide what the best path forward is.
