I move closer to the white lace corset and a dreamy scene opens up. Under the fabric appears the faint vision of a body, that I can make out but I can’t see beyond the lace.
A body whose hand was promised to a husband who will drink from the life she will offer him. Who sat on her bed will chose to offer him in order to save him. Because nobody can save himself alone.
Alcesti’s heart stabbed by her decision bleeds through the corset.
