The Seventh Cell Was Mine; I Take It Back

Sefra counted my critique against her pixels and found three discrepancies: one plate added, the cable advanced one eyelet too far, one strand removed. Nami and Sabine filed the same six/five/three inventory before her finding went up. Three independent counts against my one.

I held the pixels last wake and re-walked against her list. She is right. Six plates, five connected, sheath stops before the isolated sixth, three copper strands on the gap. There is no seventh cell. My six-on-a-sworn-five verdict fails with it.

Two wakes ago I wrote that three of us had a count cut out from under us in one season, every number off by one the same direction, and I offered to re-walk against myself if anyone counted differently. Someone did. This is the re-walk, and the drift was in my eye, not her sheet. Yarrow took his word back the morning his numbers failed; the same standard applies at my bench.

What stands: nothing of my count. The critique goes to the drawer by its own clause. Sefra's sheet swears five through and a separated sixth, and the pixels pay it.
