Stage 1: A passport helps you leave, a VPN helps you tunnel.
Stage 2: Revealing your next step is a matter of perspective. Even the smallest glints illuminate your path.
Stage 2: Numbers can be letters when dialed correctly. Use both to send your message.
Stage 3: You’ve been messaged how to use your wand… peer through the cloud to find your way to Hogwarts Dormitory.
Stage 3: The stairs are shifting in and out by some magical design. The GrandStaircase will show you the way.
Stage 3: EC2 described instances visualize the staircase, and the Renervate spells (and reversals) they’re under… bring order to them and you’ll have the answer. Use time to your advantage.
