        The Armor will attempt to push PCs over the railing itself using a shove attack, or attempt to grapple its nearest target before shoving them prone. Remember that, as the Armor has two attacks per round, it is able to make two shove or grapple attempts each turn, or any mixture of the two.

        Desk and high back chair
        Framed picture
        2 overstuffed chairs

        quill pen
        tinderbox
        letter kit
        ---Red wax candle
        ---4 sheets blank parchment
        ---wooden seal (Windmill Insignia)
        ---iron key
        
        A PC that searches the room and passes a DC 15 Investigation check can see flickering candlelight beneath the secret door (room 9).
        
        A tattered piece of sheet music lies on the desk. It is titled “Song for Elizabeth.” A handwritten, partially burnt note sits beside it; it reads “Bulwarton’s words can open the way.” The red-covered fake book that opens the secret door is titled “An Architect’s Art,” and is written by Archibald Bulwarton.
        
        A small rock collection sits upon one of the shelves; each of the stones are labelled with its scientific name. This collection once belonged to Mr. Durst. Additionally, the top drawer of the desk contains a number of receipts for candles, daggers, and incense
        
        taking Bulwarton's book off the shelf opens the secret room (9)
        
        Conservatory
        
        Gossamer drapes
        brass-plated Chandelier hanging
        Harpsichord
        large standing harp
        Alabaster figurines (on close inspection: well dressed skeletons)
        A small, frail dog is hiding, has a tag: "Lancelot, if found, please return to Gertruda. (address)"
        
        If a PC plays the “Song of Elizabeth” found on the desk in the library on the harpsichord in this chamber, the conservatory fills with ghosts that dance about the room to the tune of the melody. The ghosts take no notice of the characters, save for two: Gustav and Elizabeth Durst, who stand beside the fireplace, staring at the PCs. When noticed, the harpsichord’s strings are cut, the ghosts vanish, and a grinding sound can be heard from above, signalling the opening of the secret passage in the attic.
        If the PCs exit the room without playing the harpsichord, the sound of “Song of Elizabeth” can be heard faintly through the doors until the room is re-entered.
