Everything seemed quite normal, at first...
"at first" is a preposition

You set it off with a comma to emphasize the feeling "at first."
New grammar rules state that prepositions should come first and never at the end of a sentence. The grammar style of a preposition at the end is more in the form of a children's "Easy Reader" and is not proper in adult speaking or writings.

Properly, it should read, "At first, everything seemed normal."
