Now is the Write Time

[Now is the Write Time]
An imposing mistwood writing desk paired with a tall, straight-backed chair is arranged in front of a large window, a rolling cart laid out with a silver tea set parked nearby. Thick with dust, the shelves inside a large cabinet are stocked with bins of parchment, stacks of note cards, and assorted ornate glass bottles. A fluffy white cat peeks out from a white wicker bin filled with discarded stationery.
Obvious exits: north, out
In the Common language, it reads:

The boxes on the desk will store your loose paper in a special way.  The box can be locked to secure your stationery accessories, and keys are found in the desk.  The cabinet is stocked with paper and various perfumes to scent your stationery.
