Create a medieval fantasy battle map for Foundry VTT, representing the fourth floor of Perilous Castle, as a direct continuation of the previous three floors. Strictly maintain the same visual identity: medieval Gothic architecture, rustic and aged stones, thick walls, large stone blocks, old dark wood, oxidized metal, dark atmosphere, and realistic finish. The fourth floor should look older, more solemn, and more mysterious, visually preparing the approach to the fifth and final floor. VISION AND CAMERA Strictly top-down orthographic view, true 90-degree overhead view, camera perfectly perpendicular to the ground. No perspective, no tilt, no isometric view, no diorama appearance, no 3D effect, and no vertically-seen walls. True floor plan of a professional battle map. No grid. STRUCTURE A long and imposing central corridor dominates the floor, serving as the main circulation axis. The corridor is wide, silent, and solemn, with a floor of large rustic aged stones and thick Gothic walls. Along the corridor, there are four smaller rooms, each connected directly by a functional door: Chamber of Honor of the Golden Griffin Clan — a room with an old Golden Griffin crest, ceremonial weapons, shields, decayed portraits, and an empty pedestal, suggesting an important object was removed. Abandoned Gothic Chapel — a small stone altar, old pews, decayed statues, unlit candles, and aged stained glass. Silent and solemn atmosphere, with no supernatural manifestations. Archive and Records Room — old bookshelves, boxes, maps, documents, and aged scrolls. Some open drawers and empty spaces on the shelves suggest someone searched the place. Sealed Chamber — a nearly empty room containing a huge, old, sealed stone door. Rusted chains, signs of wear, and discreet cracks around the door. Do not show what is behind it. STAIRCASE At the end of the central corridor, there is a grand Gothic stone staircase, clearly visible, leading to the fifth floor. The staircase must be more monumental than the previous ones, visually functioning as the passage to the most important level of the castle. Do not show the fifth floor. ATMOSPHERE The fourth floor must convey secular abandonment, silence, solemnity, and growing tension. Imposing Gothic architecture, stone arches, aged details, decayed crests, old statues, worn rugs, dust, and some cobwebs. The environment must be dark yet well-lit and perfectly legible for play. Use cool, soft lighting, with discreet beams of light passing through closed Gothic windows. The structure remains solid and usable, without major collapses. STYLE Dark, epic, realistic, and cinematic medieval Gothic fantasy. Extremely realistic textures of aged rustic stone, old wood, oxidized metal, and decayed fabrics. The fourth floor should look older and more important than the lower levels, creating a clear sense that the characters are approaching the heart of Perilous Castle. GAMEPLAY AND RESTRICTIONS Clean and functional map, with clear areas for movement and combat. No grid, characters, people, monsters, creatures, tokens, miniatures, corpses, skeletons, ghosts, modern elements, texts, captions, numbers, game interface, or room names. No active magical effects, no glowing runes, no portals. No perspective, no isometric view, no tilted camera, no 3D or diorama appearance. No visible vertical walls. No excess of objects or debris blocking movement. (with damaged gargoyle statues)
