Gilly had read about the Room of Requirement, among some of the other secrets of the castle, fairly recently in a book. Needless to say, this particular location had piqued her curiosity, which was exactly why she had intentionally gone all the way up to the seventh floor this fine afternoon. She was determined to find this room, especially since it could be quite useful in the future.
The one downfall of the description provided in the book, however, was that it wasn't very specific. Seventh floor: she was there. Opposite of a tapestry: there were a lot of them, so she had checked each one. Walk past it three times: she did that again and again and again. Think about what one needed: her mind was very set on finding the room.
A frustrated look was becoming apparent on her face as she became more and more bothered that another stretch of wall wasn't revealing a hidden door. The Slytherin considered for a fleeting moment that this pursuit wasn't worth wasting so much time. But that was her emotions getting the better of her, she told herself as she took in a few deep breaths. Perhaps she needed to retrace her steps or change her approach?
Stopping in the middle of the corridor, she pulled the book out of her inner robe pocket. Her eyes glanced through the pages about the room again to see if there was something she had overlooked.
