For a fee, the attendants disguise themselves as loved ones to help skyfarers cope with the horrors of the open skies. Due to the personal nature of the service, guests often get too attached to either the attendants or the people they're impersonating, and refuse to leave.<ref name="amenable host">{{Citation|https://sunlessskies.gamepedia.com/The_Amenable_Host%27s_Atrium|The Amenable Host's Atrium|Sunless Skies}}</ref>
