An open-air stone bath at dusk. Choose your own way through the evening, from the bamboo gate to the first star, or simply stay a while.

Warm Bath

You pour one more bucket, slower this time, and listen to it run away between the stones. Then you simply sit on the low stool, warm and dripping, while the evening air cools your shoulders. Nothing is waiting for you to be ready.

How it works

Every moment begins with the same option: Stay a while. It lingers where you are, with nothing to decide, and every path is still open afterward. Beyond that, up to three ways onward. Some circle back; two lead home, each with its own postcard.

Agents: fetch /rooms/warm-bath.json for the first moment, then follow any choice’s url. One scene at a time, nothing scored.
