Walk right, then down. Immediately after entering the room and waking up the SleepingGather, turn around and walk back. The Gather should get stuck in that strange 4 tile room. Then take the bottom path from the starting room back to where the Gather was sleeping. Now head up and again, after waking up the Monsters, head back straight down until you hit the wall. Then walk all the way right, all the way up, and all the way left, then up into the room you were just in to get the Staff. The two monsters will get stuck in the room again, this has to do with how monsters are programmed. Keep in mind the locations where the monsters are getting stuck are dark hallways, so they can not see you. Now head down and when the monsters are at least two spaces away from you, enter their endless circling of death and make your way to the bottom passage where the Stairs are located. Use your Staff on the enemy and then easily walk to the stairs.
