===Dungeons=== The Traitor's Walk is a pathway{{Ref|AGOT|32}}{{Ref|ASOS|59}} leading to a squat, half-round tower.{{Ref|AFFC|27}} The top floor holds cells for prisoners kept in a degree of comfort, such as [[knight]]s or [[lord]]lings who might be ransomed, while the entrance to the dungeons sits on the ground floor. The other floors between contain rooms for the [[King's Justice]], the [[Chief Gaoler]], and the [[Lord Confessor]].{{Ref|AFFC|27}} The dungeon entrance consists of a door of hammered iron and another door of splintered grey wood.{{Ref|AFFC|27}} King [[Maegor I Targaryen]] ordered that the dungeons below the squat tower have four levels.{{Ref|ASOS|77}} The uppermost level has cells with high narrow windows where [[smallfolk|common]] criminals are confined together.{{Ref|ASOS|77}} The second level has smaller, personal cells without windows for [[highborn]] captives. Torches in the halls cast light through the bars.{{Ref|ASOS|77}} The third level cells, the [[black cells]], are smaller still and have doors of wood so that no light enters them,{{Ref|ASOS|77}} but they have not been used in recent years.{{Ref|AFFC|7}} The lowest level is used for [[torture]]. It is supposedly safer to go through the fourth level of the dungeons in darkness, because there are things one would not wish to see.{{Ref|ASOS|77}} The dungeon has twisting turnpike stairs and iron gates.{{Ref|ASOS|77}} A path from the lowest level leads to the [[chamber of the dragon mosaic]] below the [[Tower of the Hand]] and to the [[Blackwater Rush]].{{Ref|ASOS|77}}
