Perimeter Advance
Descending the fabric ridge required a controlled drop. I used the folded seam of the cushion to anchor my grip, lowering my boots until they met the carpet pile. The grey fibers yielded slightly before stabilizing. Good traction. I advanced three paces toward the dark timber column supporting the low table, keeping low. Dust density is minimal here. Using the olive tube as a balance brace, I secured a steady observation point against the wood to map the open stretch toward the bookshelf.
