Sobre este capítulo

Merel Vosberg measures a four-and-a-half-metre land dispute in a Dutch polder and sees the world refuse her instrument. The flat farmland becomes Orran, a vast mountain world where Adai, a blind route-singer, guides roads by listening rather than measuring. Merel tests notebooks, paces, cairns, and road mood before reaching Ninefold, where impossible geography suddenly becomes exact.
