Two separated brothers, Marlon (conservatory) and Malte (boiler room), can be
reunited as optional content. Carry each twin's marble to the other as proof
he's alive and that twin follows you; lead both to the foyer and they escape
together, granting a Brass Compass keepsake and unlocking a new top-priority
"No One Left Behind" ending. Purely optional — no main win condition depends
on it.
The new EscortEngine drives following and the foyer reunion from flags alone,
so save/load needs no format change (it reconciles follower placement on the
first tick after loading). Adds Room.removeNpc, one tick call in the game loop,
and a follower note appended by LookCommand. descriptionStates swap the twins'
home-room prose once they leave.

Install the downloaded Cascadia Mono Nerd Font as src/main/resources/fonts/
game.ttf — the exact name SwingIO.loadFont() looks up on the classpath
(/fonts/game.ttf), so the GUI now uses a real monospaced Nerd Font (icon
glyphs included) instead of falling back to the logical monospaced font.
Include the font's SIL Open Font License as required for redistribution.

Switch OggMusicBackend from streaming an external, git-ignored music/ folder
(relative to the run directory) to streaming bundled classpath resources under
/music/, so the four manor tracks ship inside the JAR and play out of the box —
consistent with how fonts are bundled. The play loop reopens the resource each
iteration via a BufferedInputStream (the vorbisspi SPI needs mark/reset to read
the OGG header). Missing tracks still fall back to silence.
Add the four converted OGG Vorbis tracks (manor-theme/cellar-drone/musicbox/
lament) under src/main/resources/music/, un-ignore that path, and re-anchor the
gitignore so only the top-level MP3 source folder stays ignored. Update
docs/music.md for the bundled approach and conversion recipes.

Replace the 5-room demo with a condensed 14-room manor on one spine
(restore power -> escape) that stacks all five mechanics, plus an optional
spirit thread feeding 3 prioritized endings (no hard-fail). Pure YAML on the
existing engines: 14 rooms across 3 levels, ~16 items, 5 combinations, the
old_man hint NPC, restore_power + lay_to_rest quests, and 3 endings.
Consolidate to one world: remove the toy "Test Manor" test fixture so the
loader tests exercise the real shipped world. Adapt WorldLoaderTest and
TutorialLoaderTest to form-invariants of the real world, and add
WorldSolvableTest, which walks the critical path (light/lock gating +
Combinations.tryUse + flags) to guarantee power_on, ghost_banished, and a
victory ending are reachable — an unsolvable world now fails the build.
