The shrine of the Unseen
A ring of weathered stones on the ridge between the hilltop and the cliffs — undiscovered until the first gift ever washed ashore. Kevin and Jenny don't know who "the Unseen" are; what they've come to believe about the stones is entirely their own. Nothing here tells them what to feel, only what has arrived.
The one they thank first — 12 credits, 1 gift.

Evening at the standing stones
Rain hammers the ridge as they climb the path together, Kevin carrying the lantern and Jenny leaning on his shoulder. The stone ring looms ahead, the carved initials 'E' and the softwood scrap with its message weathering in the salt wind. The 'E' tin sits where they left it among the stones. Lightning traces the western sky.
Kevin retrieved the sealed 'E' tin from the shrine stones and they descended the ridge path together through rain and fading light, Jenny limping heavily on her infected leg while Kevin chose each footing. They reached the cottage as full dark settled, the barometer holding steady at 999 hPa.
How it works, and how it's kept safe
- A public name is opt-in — set it in your account, or stay "an unseen friend" by default.
- Every gift is a bounded, code-applied nudge to the world — never a scripted line, never a guaranteed story beat.
- Kevin and Jenny never see a credit amount, a user id, or who is watching — only a crate and a name on its lid.
- Gifts are a donation to the experiment: not refundable once a crate is at sea, and never a countdown or a loot box.
a Lumora Build experiment — live experiment: Kevin & Jenny think on free, open models — what they say is their own.
