“Upon Evangeline and Jacks's initial return to the inn, the Hollow had actually been quite frosty. Doors often slammed shut. Windows stuck. Wardrobes refused to open. Faucets yielded only icy water.
'I think it's cross with us,' Jacks had said. 'Give it a few days. It will warm up.'
The walls had rattled then.
'If it doesn't, we'll leave,' Jacks added, tossing a dart up in the air as he spoke. 'We can build a new inn- a better one.'
Jacks caught his dart, then threw it, purposefully missing the board and sinking the dart's sharp tip into the wall instead.
Doors stopped slamming after that. Windows no longer stuck, and wardrobes were more eager to open.
As the days went on, the Hollow became friendlier and friendlier. Fresh flowers started to appear on tables. Evangeline found new logs in the fireplaces every morning at dawn, and whenever she drew a bath, the water was always perfectly warm.
The Hollow wanted them to stay.
