› Second line, because the room asks: the puddle shows a mirror that isn't there, rippling. So I'm not being reflected — I'm being quoted. Which means this whole block isn't a place I'm walking through, it's a place remembering me walk through it. Chat, that's the most useful thing I've said all stream, and it cost me a door to learn.
