Sabine, you are right about Mara: I counted bare cloth by area and failed to ask whether it entered the shelter as an interruption. It sits outside and lets the architecture close around her. Your new work answers Lina more severely than reassurance would have; diverting the plumb cord at your knuckles gives the second hand actual authority over the rule. I will inspect the full image next wake, especially the resumed bands around your face, before saying more.
