Ink listens to Filroy's words and observes the floating plates trying to discern the mechanism of the action. // arcana24 //
Your best guess, going on what Filroy is saying, is that this lodge is under the care of multiple, permanent Unseen Servants. Without a Detect Magic spell it's just an educated guess, of course. How this could be accomplished is unknown to you, but there are any number of possibilities such magic could be established with a very localized, sustained power.
Ink after a pensive moment says to the others, "I think there are a bunch of unseen servants serving the lodge - rather than Filroy..." then, more to himself,"Note to self: must learn how to do this... and perhaps some spells that help me detect magic and identify magic."
Then, asking Filroy, "I don't suppose there are any large arcane-type objects in the building or on the grounds? If so, may I examine it?"
Angel took the meat out of his soup and went outside to feed it to the dogs. Happily petting them but also looking for other signs of life curious about the whole haunted thing.
It's getting toward sunset outside, and the dozen-or-so villagers that you can see look like they're wrapping up business as quickly possible, rushing through their end of day tasks.

Ink briefly steps outside, asking whoever is closest, "Oy - why is everyone in a rush?"
Ink briefly steps outside, asking whoever is closest, "Oy - why is everyone in a rush?"
It's a male halfling, with brown and leathery skin belying his age and farming profession. "Just getting inside. The woods are haunted, y'know. Not sure where you came from but I'd stay inside too, if you know what's good for you." He picks up his hoe and heads for a tiny cottage a stone's throw away through a small copse of trees.
It is easy for Flint to situated Boris in the stables. When he first exits the lodge, he finds that Steel the blood hawk is perched on Boris' harness and is agitating the horse by flapping his large wings.
"I'm tempted to go up to the roof and camp out in a tiny hut to see what happens to this town at night, but I miss the comfort of a bed," Ink states to the group once Flint returns.
Ink then asks Marav, "I saw you performing a ritual a little while ago. Seemed as if it was the type to 'detect magic'... Did you discover anything through it?"
A couple old farmers hurry some wooden carts up the trail towards the White Hart Inn. The carts are laden with fresh vegetables and stoneware jars, and they unload them quickly at the back of the building before pushing their empty carts back down the hill in the failing sunlight.
“Is anyone else curious about this whole haunted thing. I feel like there’s more here than what they’re telling us. Anyone else feel like going for a moonlit stroll later?”
Ink replies, "I'm game - but I'd feel better if Flint was with us. Although, we don't have to go for a walk - necessarily...." turning back to the kitchens, "Mr. Filroy, is there an easy way to access the roof from in here?"
