The Comfortable-Looking Sofa

The Comfortable-Looking Sofa is an Elemenstated item of furniture that looks really soft and warm and inviting to sit upon. However, due to the evils of Dark Elemenstation, the Comfortable-Looking Sofa is not, in fact, comfortable at all. Any who sit or, God forbid, sleep upon the Comfortable-Looking Sofa are doomed to squirm and wriggle in an attempt to find a position that does not cause back strain. It is for this reason that the Comfortable-Looking Sofa is considered to be surreptitious seating.

The Comfortable-Looking Sofa was a minor antagonist throughout Book 3, continually appearing in the unlikeliest places (in the dungeon in Chapter 6, behind the monolith in Chapter 13 and on a two-foot-wide ledge on the face of a mountain in Chapter 37) to tempt the travellers in their darkest moments, to sit upon its plush-looking cushions.
