[*] To map the maze of jet black passages you wave the rod which emits a puff of different coloured smoke in each room. The colours are those of the rainbow in the order of the spectrum (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet), however you will lose your rod digging out of the room underneath the bear's chair and so you may have to map this maze first of all. Use SOS at the locations where there are dots and dashes to take you south of the castle.
