The table speaks plainer, and keeps its whimsy

Wording throughout the app, the server's messages and the engine's
refusals trades its stacked dashes for sentences, while the maze still
trusts you to honor its curses, the gallery still listens, and the
clockwork still learns its best tricks from the humans at the table.
