No, this is updating the step, which will either say

“Secretly randomly select a Lit room that is orthogonally adjacent to his current room and change his location to be that room; if there are no such valid rooms, then instead, secretly randomly select a Lit room that is diagonally adjacent to his current room and change his location to be that room”

in either case, I need it to end

“... location to be that room. When randomly selecting a room for this step, Richardo may only select the Room which was his immediate previous location if it is the only option in the set of rooms he is randomly choosing from.”

although this is actually likely to decrease Puissance gains on average with the current map layout (given that the Library of Souls – in a fairly open area – is responsible for most of them, whereas dead-end rooms tend to provide no Puissance).
