==== The Tunnel ==== | ==== The Tunnel ==== | ||
The Tunnel was a long glass tunnel in which all light in [[the House]] once became trapped, making it into “the Airing Cupboard of Despair”. There were people trapped inside the tunnel, one of whom eventually worked up the courage to creep to the end of the tunnel and unlatch the brass-and-glass hatchway; instead of letting the swirling, silent darkness in as the others feared, this let the light out.

Well into the House's modern era, it was said that [[the Architect]] continued drawing up blueprints for new rooms to add to “the Infinite Wing”.

==== The Empty Room ==== | |||
The Empty Room was said to be the hardest room to access in the whole [[The Strange and Wonderful House|House]], but that was perhaps for the best, as no one in their right mind wanted to access it: as soon as one entered the pure-white expanse within, one lost sight of the door itself, becoming nothing but a non-corporeal point of awareness in the middle of the void, lost forever — “eternal, suspended, deathless”. Only [[the Architect]] knew how to get in and out, and liked to spend its afternoons there, “thinking and drawing up blueprints for new rooms for [[#The Infinite Wing|the Infinite Wing]]”.
