nerd-lit?

Curtained Room
The walls of this small room are entirely swathed in heavy brocade curtains. The only openings are to the west and northwest, and a closed lead-slab door to the south.

In the center of the room is a massive, high-backed chair of some pale wood. Directly before it is a tall mirror in a standing frame.

>sit in chair
You sit down in the chair, facing the mirror.

>look in mirror
You blink and stare into the mirror. How odd.

The mirror reflects your chair, and the curtains behind you, perfectly. But your own form is unclear -- as if the mirror were touched with some distorting oil. The blurring is strongest around your upper body; your head appears to be a faceless blank.

Nervously, you raise your hand to your own face. Everything feels in its place. But your reflection has raised a blurred hand to a featureless void.
