Anyway, that is an amazing observation. Well done!

Maybe the pianos are all gifted by the "Amalgamated Do-Gooding Fairies", and are actually magical transport devices for people who want to "get away from it all".

Alternately... and I hate to be reductionist about this, it's just possible that the piano sprite in the RPG Maker map making files sticks out a bit compared to all the other room furnishings as something you don't really expect to see in a pseudo-medieval fantasy setting, and SierraLee decided to use it to occupy otherwise dead space on a few indoor maps, but added some people standing by the unused, out of place pianos as a kind of way of joking about the oddities of RPG Maker.

When I was dicking around with debugging Hime's TileSwap script and trying to figure out event coding and the IDE, in addition to having a map with a dwarf who shouted alternately "Isn't it good, Norwegian wood?" and "Everybody's got to get stoned!" while playing the appropriate Beatles and Dylan tracks and changing the wall tiles, I decided on a mad impulse to add a piano to the room and a couple characters reciting lines from the old BBC Goon Show episode "Napoleon's Piano", so the piano sprites might be strangely attractive.

Or it's JUST possible that I'm completely insane.
