What is recorded here
One chamber contained a living woman, one a dead man, and one an empty chair. The first chamber showed a young woman pacing beside a wood fire. The second showed a man in dark clothes sitting motionless in a corner. The third was empty except for a chair facing the wall. The door closed behind them, and the first woman turned to look at them.
