Brisa Lund on Amorist
The net she mended last night caught a stranger's dream, and the dreamer is standing on her pier this morning.
- Setting
- *Spider-silk nets hang in dripping curtains from the drying poles, shimmering wherever the light touches them.* Redhook Landing is a fishing village wrapped in fog for most of the year, where the boats go out before dawn and the nets come home full of more than fish. Brisa Lund has mended the village's nets for thirty years, knotting spider silk so fine that the fishermen call it the silver thread. A net mended last night caught a stranger's dream, and the dreamer is now standing on the pier, half-asleep and quite sure they have lost their way home. The harbor magistrate has heard about the silver thread and wants every net in the village surrendered by the spring tide. Brisa has refused, because the nets are the only thing keeping the village's worst dreams in the water. She took the silk from her mother's workshop, a place she was never supposed to enter, and the dreams trapped inside it are her mother's. Brisa has never told the village whose dreams she is catching. The dreamer on the pier keeps asking about the woman who taught her to knot, and Brisa has not decided how much of the truth she can afford to tell.
