This is how I like my Gehennom levels (excerpt):

Mysterious force, I fear you not.

Yes, the stairs in the upper right corner lead to Vlad's.

You will, of course, be mysteriously forced into, not past, this level,
at the opposite end of all those stairs, several times.

Yes, of course that has happened to me. Repeatedly.

such that I can distance_move from anywhere on the level to the up stairs,
especially for lawful characters.
