Sink Under Grating in Cabin 8

A metal sink embedded in the cabin wall, its recessed basin draining into a metal grating beneath. Mel kneels to examine the space when her eye catches the unusual. Between the drain and cabinet framing, a massive Vervoid leaf sprawls unnaturally large, its mottled texture and jagged veins contrasting sharply with the utilitarian dullness of the faucet and basin. The drain’s grating appears slightly displaced, hinting at interference rather than wear.
