Summary
It happens as Renoir says it would happen: Alicia’s body, failing Maelle day by day. As Renoir had chipped away patiently at Aline’s creations, Maelle’s memories slip away from her the longer she spends in the Canvas, the oldest first and then many more besides. To his own quiet horror, Verso finds that with each memory lost, his contentious relationship with Maelle grows easier—and, with each new thing she comes to depend on him for, he begins to cross lines that perhaps he should not.
(A spinning out of how Maelle’s end must surely end, even as Verso finds his resentment morphing into something both uglier and more tender.)
