Siv by the lake bends toward the geometry of an unopened laboratory door.

The story
Siv by the lake bends toward the geometry of an unopened laboratory door. A visible disruption forces immediate action, a second consequence changes the route through the world, and the final image leaves one specific unresolved choice. Local weather, labor, architecture and sound remain dramatic forces rather than decoration.
