Now, the door is uncovered once again as part of the preparations for “the coming of [[The Great Glass Elevator|the elevator]]”. The first visitor to take notice of the door pulls it open and is greeted with “the unexpected scents of lavender and lye soap laid over a base tang of copper”. A [[Figure in the Airing Cupboard|mysterious figure wearing a “peculiar” Victorian nightdress]] is sitting in a corner; greeting the visitor with “Darling! You've been so long!”, it closes its arms tightly around him, locking him into place. | Now, the door is uncovered once again as part of the preparations for “the coming of [[The Great Glass Elevator|the elevator]]”.

==== Chapter 27: The Lab ==== | |||
[[The Laboratory]] is described. Located “dangerously close to [[the Kitchen]]”, it is bigger on the inside thanks to its [[space expander]]s (one of the first things invented in what started out as a repurposed cupboard) and home to the [[Artifector]]s, who “spend their days thinking up new ways to make life for the residents of [[the Mansion]] easier — or harder, if they feel like it”. Inventions stored in the Laboratory include various time-travel devices, “a prototype for an innovative [[bee]]-based mode of transport”, equipment for measuring “luck, rubber band elasticity and sense of humour”, unfinished blueprints for an [[anti-procrastination device]], a [[Shiny Object Locator]] which has been misplaced, and various [[thinking cap]]s. Besides all these hallmarks of mad science, there is “a little corner dedicated to non-mad science” which sees very little use. | |||
