The video jittered. The violet sea suddenly froze into a flat, grey plane of untextured polygons. The woman's hand turned into a wireframe mesh, then vanished. The file ended abruptly at the 12-second mark.

Elias didn't look up. He closed his eyes, but he could still see the violet waves behind his eyelids, waiting for the render to finish.

But then a hand entered the frame. It was a human hand, scarred and trembling, reaching toward the sky. As the fingers brushed against the falling numbers, the digits bled into real matter—turning from light into cold, white snow that fell onto the violet water.
