- I'm sorry, you are incorrect. There is *never* a door between the
- spot one of these scrolls may be found and the adjacent room. Well,
- almost never. They're not created that way is my point. They can
- only be reached reliably via digging or a controlled teleport. Level
- teleporters, on the other hand, are created in 'closets' like this.
