The place of retreat. Ideally it provides protection against foreign, disruptive and unnecessarily distracting influences. A habitat of peace, rest, reinvention. But the geographic scope of the rest of the world blocks, despite of digital media, to a significant extend the access to the unknown, the unexpected, the surprising, and in the long term it limits the continuous expansion of the mental horizon, especially at the level of sensory perception.
treasure
A treasure can be plainly visible, secretely hidden or even immaterial. The phenomenon of appropriation of the property of the selfsame is usually inexplicable, or at least difficult to comprehend and marked by unexpected strokes of chance or fate. Loss of the treasure means the return in the realm of mere mortals, mostly without a chance to return to the dimensions that the treasure once opened.

By knowing the past, we understand the here and now; through the knowledge of the future subtle fears in the present get their entitlement or experience withdrawal of selfsame.

cats/dogs
The faithful servant in a life of dedication to the feudal lord, addicted to attention and affection or the unpredictable partner, yet coexisting in a symbiotic community, which preferably blazes unobserved its own trails in the shadows of the night, whose true passions remain hidden in the dark until the very end.
