Look
Dark hair, the built-for-wading look of people who spend their days in water. Little clothing. Bare feet, fishing , skin wet more often than dry.
As observed
Unhurried. They find land-dwellers strange for staying dry. Foreigners' urgency does not transmit well through the water.
Where
The Purelake itself: miles of warm, ankle-to-chest water, villages on and in the lake, land treated as a place one visits.
