The ladder creaked beneath his weight as Richard made his way up to the chapter house window. From previous incursions he knew only a cord held it shut. Thus he was able to easily unfasten it by probing along the edge with a small knife. Just as before the chamber beyond was empty. Richard carefully lifted the ladder from outside to enable him to descend quietly to the stone floor below.
