You gather your courage and decide to speak to the reflection in the mirror, asking it questions. With a steady voice, you address the reflection of Samuel Blackwood.

"What happened to you, Samuel? Who is responsible for your murder?"

The reflection remains silent for a moment, its eyes filled with sorrow. Then, a faint whisper escapes from the mirror, barely audible.

"Beware... the one who wears the mark... the serpent's curse..."

Before you can ask any further questions, the reflection fades away, leaving you standing alone in front of the mirror. The room feels even colder now, and a sense of urgency fills the air.

What will you do?

1. Search the room for any objects related to the serpent's curse.

2. Examine the mirror for any hidden compartments or mechanisms.

3. Leave the room and continue exploring other areas of the mansion.

4. Smash the mirror in frustration and anger.

Choose wisely, detective. The clues are starting to come together, but the danger grows with each step you take.
