Order Rooms - Mrs. Widgery's Lodgers

Now if we weren't wizards, we wouldn't be naturally curious. And part of that curiosity is in the Forbidden Realms. In this case, all those other order rooms in which you aren't allowed to peek into! Curses and drat! But with a little help and the use of scrying, we hope to remedy that situation. In our first installment of the series, we'll take a look at the Lodger's Rooms. Special thanks to Master Coffeebreak AlQuantum for his collaboration, and to Master Coleus for a second looking at the lounge objects.

You see a vision in the silver mirror:

This is the commons for Mrs. Widgery's Lodgers. It has been furnished with comfortable items which seem to be well worn. The room has been painted a deep yet vivid red, while the edges have been covered with a deep wood. The ceiling and floor are both stark white and contrast well with the intensity of the lounge. In the centre of the room is a large wooden table and to either side of that rests a huge sofa. At one end of the table, a well worn bulletin board stands and on the other end, a small chest has been put on display.

A small octarine eye, hovering in the middle of the room, watches you.

There are three obvious exits: east, north and west.

l ceiling: The ceiling has been painted with a glossy-white paint.

l floor: The floor is covered in a plush white shag.

l edges: This is used to line the walls.

l table: This is a masterpiece of craftmanship. The table has been constructed from the same wood used in the moulding around the room. It's obviously new, but carries a well used look about it.

l sofa: This is a huge sofa. It's over-stuffed and over-sized, and easily stretches from one end of the table to the other. The fabric covering the sofa is suede which has been broken in by any number of wizards finding his or her afternoon nap.

This room holds only an open book and a pen on a small table. There is one obvious exit: south. A sign is here. You close the south door. - Voting room

This is the office of the Senior Wizard of Mrs. Widgery's Lodgers. Its main feature is a large oak desk, overflowing with papers and books. Behind the desk sits a large, intricately-carved rolling chair, while a bookcase is against the east wall. Two small, uncomfortable-looking chairs sit in front of the desk. To the east is a small door, and to the west another door leads into the Order common room.

There are two obvious exits: west and east. You close the west door.

This is the bedroom of the Senior Wizard of Mrs. Widgery's Lodgers. It's mostly occupied by a large four-poster bed, although there is a small wardrobe too. The door to the office is west. There is one obvious exit: west.

As for the door that leads to the magic cafeteria, in this case it is a seam in the wall, that reads like this:

l walls: The walls have been painted a deep and vivid red. They boldly contrast both the floor and ceiling. All the moulding has been done in a deep, rich wood. There is a thin seam running down the middle of one of the walls.

l moulding: This is used to line the walls.

look seam: It looks as if this is actually a secret door. You might be able to open it if you have the willingness to try. It should open with a good push.
