Left Room

To the Exorcists, this style of room is very familiar -- it looks like a bedroom at the (old) Order. Stone floors, stone walls, a narrow, dungeon-like feel. Someone has scrawled a prayer for the dead on the walls in what appears to be lipstick. A bed here has black sheets, tightly made over the thin mattress on a metal frame. A book is sitting closed on top of the bed -- it appears to be a romance novel. A pair of old-fashioned roller-skates lies against one wall. There is a bedside table with a wash basin. A locket is sitting on the bedside table as well, closed. The standing wardrobe is full of dresses -- walking dresses, evening dresses, even a nice gown in there -- as well as several Black Order coats, in an old-fashioned style and cut to fall easily around a gown.

There is a dressing table with a mirror on it; the dressing table itself has a small array of cosmetics laid out on it. However, even a cursory glance at the dressing table will make the mirror of much more interest as the reflection doesn't reflect the room identically. It is almost the same but with two jarring exceptions. First, in the reflection, the bed is a coffin. Second, in the reflection, a woman's corpse is collapsed on the floor. She is beheaded, her head lying some feet away from her body, eyes closed, lips blue, the stump bloody but no longer bleeding. Her body is dressed in the same style of clothes that were found in the wardrobe. To some of you, she most likely quite familiar. She has dark blonde hair coming loose from a ponytail, and a face that is somewhat plain (wide forehead, round cheeks, an unremarkable nose) but might be pretty if she smiled; however, her face is tight with what looks like grief rather than fear or pain. Tears are still visible on her face.

Chains run over the walls in both the real room and the reflection, wrapping around generally, and they eventually terminate in a square of the floor -- but only here, not in the reflection.
