The Deck of Many Things (Round 17)

While not playing much recently I did have one lucky break with the Deck of Many Things towards the end of June. Here it is:
On the Spiral Staircase
Exits: up down
The Deck of Many Things lies in wait for a brave soul.
The Deck of Many Things says 'If you can find a card within me, you might be lucky enough to draw something of value.
However, once you submit to chance, you put yourself at the mercy of the cards.
The Deck of Many Things winks suggestively.
