Marsh Child's Blanket

A thin, tattered blanket lies crumpled on the examination table where the Marsh Child is restrained. Its coarse weave and faded stripes match the sparse, utilitarian bedding of the Science Unit's containment chamber. The fabric clings to the child's exposed limbs, its edges frayed from repeated use and hasty handling. The blanket's presence underscores the child's status as a specimen rather than a patient, a prop in Dexeter's grim experiments.
