The Slow Regard of Silent Things

This companion novella follows Auri, a mysterious young woman living alone in the Underthing beneath the University. Over the course of a few days, she moves through hidden passages and abandoned rooms, attending carefully to the objects and spaces around her. The story offers an intimate, largely wordless look at her routines, sensitivities, and private world.
