FYI there are no stairs that you can visibly see you would have to blindly run through doors not yet opened or checked to even try to locate the stairs.

The opening of the window curtains did not shine any light on stairs, is that what you are saying?
Even a child that receives one bit of praise has the ability to excel in a single talent, and those who receive regular encouragement can feel confidence, achieve success, and become leading members of society. Because they don’t believe they are worthless, they don’t need to raise a fist and have vengeance against fate or the world at large… ~Inspector Lunge

seeing as the stairs are up on the second floor and come down to the first floor in a completely different room no the curtains did nothing other than shine light into the current room that has no stairs in it. Almost everyone is currently located in room 3 Botang is in room 2, the curtains were opened in room 3, the sound of the runner heading towards stairs possibly is from above you.

In that case Rician will simply, immediately open the door, that best as he can tell, may lead to the source of the sounds that were heard, with Krakus following behind.

Bandir Spellbringer - F1/M2 - Spell Armour & Ring +1: AC 5 (Armor 10 hp) - Bandir HP: 11 /11:

Bandir scans the room and not spotting any stairs listens to hear the direction of the foot steps from above. Getting louder, fainter, going up or down stairs. If it's coming closer he stays behind the chair. If not he'll work with the others to figure out how to contain the threat. Bandir whispers to the group, "Let's try and corral this thing if we can. It might know more about the mansion. We might have scared it. If we can capture it even better. If we can talk to it even better still."

Bandir Spellbringer - F1/M2 - Spell Armour & Ring +1: AC 5 (Armor 10 hp) - Bandir HP: 11 /11:

Bandir says,”I’m going around back guys

Bandir quietly goes out the front door and then shortest way to go around to the back of the building. Bow ready and drawn. Moving as quietly as he can at full walk. Once to edge of the side and rear he peeks around the back.

Are you circling the whole building? Because if so there are no other doors or entrances into the mansion besides the front door,
the only other things you see are many many windows all around the mansion none of which are open and all of which have thick curtains closed to them, save for the ones back by the front door.

Bandir Spellbringer - F1/M2 - Spell Armour & Ring +1: AC 5 (Armor 10 hp) - Bandir HP: 11 /11:

Bandir went out then right as he went out and circled the whole building.

Bandir comes back in with Hantea probably still with him gasping but whispers, "These no other way out except windows and those are all closed up it appears. Maybe there's a secret way out but I didn't see anything unusual around the building."

Bandir adds quietly, "Let's start searching this place out starting with the next door to the left of room 3 and maybe pick up a trail?"

Chasing Noises & Checking Doors:

After a quick lap around the exterior of the building and finding no other ways in or out of the mansion the group gathers up near the next door on the north wall of the main entry hall and prepares for an encounter. Opening the door reveals a long hall that appears to have another 2 doors at the northern end and an open archway, the south side of the hall way leads to an open area that it appears the door to the west opens into from the main entry hall. The hall has very little furniture and has many more paintings some of the very mansion you are in with what looks like the founder and his family standing outside, other paintings look similar to those of the ones in the main entry hall like it is a hall of ancestors or ancestry. having no windows in the hallway and no light sources currently lit there are oil lanterns on the long tables near some benches along with a hutch likely used to store serving dishes and utensils. Both doors to the north are closed but have no door knobs/handles. Though it is hard to make out fine details in the dim light. There appears to be a door to the west mid way down the hall and one on the east wall closer to the 2 doors in the north wall. No further sounds are heard the person or thing that was running on the second floor descended the stairs or stopped currently everything is silent save for everyone's breathing.

Bandir

Bandir whispers,”I’ll follow you Botang. Everyone be careful of traps. Watch for foot prints and listen for noises as we go.

Bandir singnsls the others to follow them.

Bandir lowers his bow but keeps it notched with an arrow but not drawn. Scans the room follows in order of those that join them.

Hantae Invisible

Talking softly to the others. "6 sets of armor on stands through the archway, 2 of the doors are curtains that also go into the same room as the archway. Fireplace has a draft and I can hear birds in it, maybe nesting. 1 door to the north appears normal."
