Create a medieval fantasy battle map for Foundry VTT, representing the second floor of Perilous Castle as a direct continuation of the first floor. The second floor must strictly maintain the same architectural identity, materials, proportions, finishes, and visual language of the first floor: dark medieval gothic castle, realistic aged stone, old wood, rusted metal, robust architecture, and realistic details. VISION AND CAMERA: Battle map in a strictly top-down orthographic view, true 90-degree overhead view, camera perfectly perpendicular to the floor. No perspective, no camera tilt, no isometric view, no model-like appearance, no 3D effect, and no vertically visible walls. Represent everything as a true professional TTRPG battle map floor plan. Do not use a grid. The map must be clean, functional, and designed to allow character movement during combat. GENERAL STRUCTURE OF THE SECOND FLOOR: The second floor features an architectural floor plan consistent with the first floor of Perilous Castle, using the same thick dark stone outer walls and gothic architecture. In the center of the floor is a long main hallway, clearly defined and functioning as the central circulation axis. The hallway should traverse most of the second floor and be sufficiently wide for movement and combat encounters. Along the hallway are four smaller rooms, distributed as independent spaces and connected directly to the hallway via functional doors. The rooms must be clearly separated by thick stone walls. The hallway should be visually dominant in the composition, functioning as the main architectural axis of the second floor. CENTRAL HALLWAY: The central hallway is the main element of the second floor. Features: long and wide hallway; floor made of large aged stone slabs; thick gothic stone walls; symmetrical and organized architecture; functional doors leading to side rooms; sufficient space for movement and combat; a few old, worn rugs at strategic points; small amounts of dust; some spiderwebs; old furniture or decorative objects only along the sides, without blocking circulation. The hallway should look ancient, abandoned, and silent, but still structurally intact. FOUR SIDE ROOMS: The four rooms are smaller than the environments on the first floor and lie directly adjacent to the central hallway. Each room must have a clearly visible door connecting it directly to the hallway. 1. ALCHEMIST'S LABORATORY: One of the side rooms functions as an old abandoned alchemist's lab. The environment should contain: old wooden workbench; small tables; old glass vials and containers; tubes, vessels, and alchemical equipment; shelves with containers; old books and notes; dried ingredients and lab materials; aged furniture; accumulated dust; some spiderwebs. The lab should look abandoned for a long time. Objects may suggest ancient experiments took place there, but without showing active magical effects, glowing potions, supernatural energy, or glowing magic circles. 2. SARCOPHAGUS ROOM: Another smaller room contains a large ancient stone sarcophagus as the central element of the space. The sarcophagus should have a medieval/gothic appearance, heavy, old, and covered in moderate signs of decay. The room should be relatively empty to highlight the sarcophagus. Add: aged stone floor; thick stone walls; small unlit old candles or lighting brackets; dust; some spiderwebs; small discrete funerary elements. The sarcophagus must be closed. Do not show corpses, skeletons, creatures, ghosts, or characters. 3. RUBBLE ROOM: A third room shows clearer signs of decay. The room contains: broken stones; pieces of wood; parts of old furniture; masonry fragments; dust; scattered small debris; some spiderwebs. The rubble should occupy part of the room, but not completely. Leave an area sufficiently clear for movement and exploration. Do not turn the room into a complete ruin. The walls must remain structurally intact. 4. FOURTH ROOM: The fourth room is a small abandoned secondary room with simple decor and little furniture. It should feature: aged stone floor; thick walls; some abandoned old furniture; a small table or cabinet; worn rug; dust; some spiderwebs. Keep the room visually simple, without introducing a specific function or dominant narrative element. STAIRCASE TO THE NEXT FLOOR: At the end of the central hallway, there is a new staircase leading to the third floor of Perilous Castle. The staircase must be clearly positioned at the far end of the hallway, functioning as a vertical progression point. Create a small dedicated architectural space for the staircase, bounded by walls. The staircase must be clearly visible in the strictly top-down perspective. It should visually convey that it continues to the upper floor, but the third floor should not be represented. The staircase must have an architectural appearance consistent with the first floor staircase. DOORS AND CIRCULATION: All rooms must have clearly visible functional doors, directly connecting each environment to the central hallway. Do not create unnecessary secondary corridors. Do not create labyrinthine passages. Circulation should be simple, intuitive, and suitable for a battle map. Doors should have a medieval gothic appearance, made of old wood and reinforced with aged metal. ARCHITECTURE: Maintain the exact same architectural language as the first floor: thick stone walls; large aged stone blocks; medieval gothic architecture; gothic arches and details; aged dark wood; robust structures; realistic finish; coherent architectural proportions. The second floor should feel like part of the same building, not a different map. WINDOWS: Add some old gothic windows on the exterior walls. The windows should be closed and integrated into the architecture. Do not show people, external landscapes, or modern elements through them. LIGHTING: The atmosphere should remain that of a dark, abandoned gothic castle, but the map must remain clear and perfectly legible. Do not make the environment excessively dark. Use soft, cold ambient lighting. Add some beams of cold light entering through the windows and small cracks in the castle structure. Shadows should be realistic, but never hide important areas of the map. VISUAL STYLE: Dark medieval gothic fantasy, sophisticated and realistic. Highly detailed and realistic textures of: aged stone; old wood; rusted metal; glass; worn fabrics; dust; rubble. Abandonment should be moderate. The castle has been abandoned for centuries, but its structure remains solid and usable.
