Two guardians of a digital archive rescue a girl who remembers only that she must return to a flower garden.
Dual and Dorothy protect the worlds held inside the Box of Wisdom by deleting those infected by viruses. The unknown girl interrupts that routine with a question their usual duties cannot answer.

A place containing many worlds can look limitless while still being governed by a narrow rule: contamination means deletion. Rescuing a person within that system asks the guardians to attend to an individual whose origin is uncertain. Her remembered flower garden gives their search a concrete destination amid the abstraction of stored worlds. Consider it for a compact science-fiction mystery built around digital preservation, an unexplained visitor and the limits of an assigned task.
