[[Mika]] and [[Hattie (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Hattie]], eavesdropping through their windows, hear the [[lawn gnome]]s taking a phone call, and are relieved to hear that the gnomes are leaving their garden, having been contracted to go repair an elevator somewhere. However, their liberation is short-lived as Mika notices the neighbours' plastic flamingos are starting to move. | [[Mika]] and [[Hattie (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Hattie]], eavesdropping through their windows, hear the [[lawn gnome]]s taking a phone call, and are relieved to hear that the gnomes are leaving their garden, having been contracted to go repair an elevator somewhere.

==== Chapter 22: The Gallery ==== | |||
[[The Gallery]] is described. It can be entered through ornate wooden doors beneath “the stained glass window showing the birds from which the [[Seven Noble Houses]] take their names”. It contains works of art from various styles, time periods and universes, presented in no particular order — including “photographs of poor children in a city that is almost but not quite [[London|Victorian London]]”, “pages from a medieval manuscript portraying impossible beasts”, “a Cubist painting showing the depths of [[Hell]]”, and “a painting [[Vincent Van Gogh|Van Gogh]] never made in this world”. The “armed statues in every style imaginable” which adorn the hallways, on the other hand, are not part of the exhibit: they are instead “the guards of the Gallery”, who “bring swift death to any who attempt to steal from it”. Deep in the Gallery, any visitor will find a room with paintings depicting key moments of their own life, including a painting of their own death at the far end of the room. “Few have the courage to venture this far.” | |||
