[ The leather of the journal has been dyed amethyst-purple, and seems to be worn from use. Flipping open the journal reveals that a number of pages have been torn out throughout the front pages, clearly used as kindling for the unlit fire. The remaining pages each have a single name written on them in the same unsteady hand:
[She'll tuck the pages back into the book, and stands to move the journal to the couch cushion. Turning she digs through her pockets pulling out a handkerchief and a knife. She squats down, taking minute to tear the cloth into strips and pry a large splinter off the wood. She uses them to make a fire starter before placing it into the fireplace before touching the flame of the candelabra to it to get the fire going.]
[ There are only a handful of books on the shelves. All the titles are fairy tales or Shakespearian plays. A Midsummer Night's Dream and Tam Lin seem to be the most worn. ]
[Weeeelllllllll she'll read through the first one perhaps, but she'll put it back on the shelf after that. Midsummer Night's Dream gets glanced at as well.]
[That gets less of a look over once she realizes it's a play. Turning to the kitchen, she'll go over to start the fire going so she can heat the kettle for tea.]
[Well, that's fine and somehow seems proper. She'll check the vase next and add water if it needs some, but she's kind of dubious as to how much help that will be.]
True. But there are other rooms, if it is not here.
[ The trunk is simple, unadorned wood, but for a brass plaque that reads "Lucky" on the front. The simple canvas pack is stuffed full and leaning against it. ]
[ The chest smells strongly of wood, and is mostly empty. An inner shelf holds a stuffed duck that looks like it’s been well-loved, a glass vial of water with an amethyst ribbon, a sheet of gold star stickers (with five remaining), and a little bag of 5 cookies.
In the bag you find a set of Amethyst's Wonderland uniforms, a set of their winter Camelot uniforms, and a hand-knit scarf in amethyst-purple. ]

The kettle settles to boil and remains at a state of "just about to whistle" for far too long to be normal. Perhaps it's meant to be kept waiting. ]

It's much less lonely in here now.
Re: Amethyst
[Going to take a look at that trunk and pack finally.]

Re: Amethyst
Yeah. It'd be too easy to find it in the first room I checked.

Re: Amethyst
I guess it's the next room for us. Come on.
[And heading back to the hallway and the second door.]
