대본

Early winter settles over the garden. Kai walks past Prop 01 — compost box carrying a mug and does not stop to inspect it. The box remains where it is, working slowly without his attention. Some processes do not improve when watched constantly. Time is part of the work.

이미지 설명

In early winter, Kai walks past the compost box with a mug while the garden rests around him.

이 챕터에 대해

Kai begins collecting fallen leaves, spent stems, and kitchen scraps in a simple compost box. At first the pile looks like a container for things that are finished. Over time, he sees heat, fungi, insects, and decomposition turn the discarded material into dark compost. When he feeds that compost back into the same flower beds, Kai realizes the garden does not divide the world neatly into useful and useless, living and dead. It keeps changing one into the other. The lesson is simple: an ending does not erase value, and worth is not the same thing as productivity.
