The lake gives no waves; movement is made by faith and oar. The more present the Kuo-Toa community’s abundance being seems, the more ordered the reeds and fish are believed to be. Its silence is therefore an immediate crisis of food and government.

Table tensions

  • Fish caught in the nets repeat decisions never spoken in council.
  • Bubbles from the submerged temple spell a different goddess’s name after every rite.
  • The lake’s only wave points toward the shore where a lost priest boat arrived.
