How it begins
The game begins with a quote from "In Memoriam A.H.H." by Lord Alfred Tennyson.
This room is full of silence. Freshly disturbed dust hangs upon the air. There are patterns of pressure upon the carpet, suggesting there are spaces where once there weren't. The walls are bare, but for the occasional pictureless hook. There is a wardrobe here, a chest of drawers and a skeleton of shelves against the far wall.
The only way out is to the west onto the upstairs landing.
