Dust flew everywhere as you explore the Shack, and to use a bubble-head charm was a fantastic idea to keep the sneezing at bay. Keep it on, for it seems that you will be spending a good amount of time in here. Or maybe not?

The temperature within the shack was a comfortable one, but as you approach the stove you felt a little bit warmer. Maybe it was from disturbing the stove to see if it had a passageway behind it? Nevertheless, the sound of metal grating against wood echoed around the shack, and the slightest movement caused some of its parts to loosen. You are right about one thing though, you will have to come back for it later.

Moving on to the second floor, the state wasn’t that different from the floor below you. It used to be a habitable one, maybe even stately at some point but now it was left to collect dust, moths...and rats the size of cats. The only mobile residents of the shack went for their holes as you hit one of the piano keys. As expected, the sound was horrible. But maybe...maybe it isn’t so bad after all because again, the extra warmth you felt earlier was back.

You are close, Hogwartian. So very close.

And as you tickle the ivory keys, Ding...clang...blong...pffff, said the piano strings as the hammers make contact. Perhaps at this point, you can thank your mother for at least attempting to make you play the piano. Musically trained or not, you just know that the last key didn’t sound right...even if the whole piano was out of tune.

Ding...clang...blong...pfff.

Curious...hmm. Try the keys again...explore this item if you must. And while you’re at it, why don’t you give the riddle another go?
