## first-visit
The parlor has been arranged for company. No chair faces another. Each one waits at a slight angle, as if the guests stood suddenly and left the room in silence.

A stopped clock stands against the north wall. A narrow study opens beyond it. The hallway is below.

## revisit
The parlor waits with its empty chairs.

## examined
Dust gathers on the chair arms, but not on the seats. Someone has sat here recently, or the room remembers being occupied. The grandfather clock shows no hour you can name.
