The Forest is a room. "This forest is cold and damp. Sunset is drawing very near and shelter must be found soon. The only apparent direction to go is north."

A room called Before the Castle of the Big Red Key is north of the Forest. "The castle looms before you. Its massive front door has a lock that seems to glow a fiery red. You must continue north past that door. The only other exit is to the south."

The big_red_key is here. The description is "It's a big red key." The printed name is "big red key". Understand "big", "red", and "key" as the big_red_key. It unlocks the massive front doorway.

The massive front doorway is north of Before the Castle of the Big Red Key and south of the Castle Vestibule. The doorway is a door. It is locked. It is scenery. Understand "door" as doorway. The description is "The door to the castle is a massive wooden structure built to withstand almost anything."

The lock is part of the massive front doorway. The description is "The lock seems rather ordinary other than the fact that it glows a fiery red."

The Castle Vestibule is a room. "Standing in the vestibule makes you feel small and insignificant."

After going north from the Castle of the Big Red Key:

end the game saying "Congratulations! You have solved the mystery of the Castle of the Big Red Key."
