A small island wanders in the middle of the desert of the open sea.

In the stories, she floats shining on the reflecting surface, and gray in the night between wave crests.

Corresponding to the tide, a mechanism that is driven by the water intervenes in it rhythmically. She knits a wire down into the inhuman.

The current also causes the current that splits the salt water;

Calcium carbonate and magnesium turn the knitting into aragonite.

The inhabitants of the water are settled on the stone,

Mollusks and algae adhere to the mineral.

Fish passing by on their migration find food here, in turn, prey for larger predators.
