SPOILERS!

There is no way to tell which one to move next.  It is random
everytime, but I notice that 3-2-1 or 2-3-1 work most often.  Remember
to bat the eye before each attempt.  When the door opens, get as close
to the wizard as fast as possible.  The eye can still fry you if you
are too close to the steps.

DEATH TO MERLIN'S MUTIES!
