Who: Tamsin; a Warden Measurer; the envoys of all five factions in the gallery: Tamsin for the Wardens, Brother Fallow (Tenders), Novice Tull (Keepers, sent by Keeper Hale), Sister Ise (Still Choir), Caravan-master Dace (Waymakers).

From Walkthrough: Act 2 › Chapter 1: Twinhold, with Tamsin › The Measuring

What happens: every caster who comes to Twinhold is measured. The player draws three times on the Measure Glass: Repel, Coil, and then "whatever your hands want", any spell they know. Drawing on the Measure Glass is not casting, so nothing fires and nothing is a crime. The Glass shows each pair of strokes laid over its reflection, and the gallery reads the result. [Lanternfall first] The player knows Facet Seal and can draw it as the free draw: the Measurer stops the room, Tamsin looks away, and Sister Ise signs something quick to Novice Tull.

Keepers (Novice Tull): a sealed note from Keeper Hale: "Come to the Hour Stair when you are ready. You are not." An Act 3 hook.
