Editing Diorama Dollhouse (section)

==Particulars==
As a magic dollhouse any effects it creates or events it represents will use a doll motif.<ref name=":0">“One person presently on this Trail isn’t supposed to be here,” the opossum by the wayside told her.<br>[...]<br>Who wasn’t supposed to be here? Herself? Was it Snowdrop, if Snowdrop was non-virginal? One of the Others? An invader?<br>[...]<br>Avery blinked, trying to see. She made out a shape. A hand. A massive doll’s hand.<br><br>The doll’s face was beyond the thicket, lying sideways.<br><br>“I know what to do!” Snowdrop raised her voice. “I know what to do! I’ll help! I can bring help! I can save you!”<br><br>Then the hand receded. Taking Snowdrop with it. The face remained. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/07 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.9]]</ref>

Affecting the diorama will affect what the diorama represents, as with most augury looking is a two way streat.<ref name=":16">
Lawrence said, [...] ["]This device, empowered by this space, makes a fine lens.["] [...]<br><br>“It could be a trap,” Shellie said, looking closer. “There are things he could do to retaliate. [...][[Kevin Noone|You’d]] be especially vulnerable if we targeted him or one of his subordinates directly. But we won’t. For now, before our man is out of the washroom and aware of what is going on…” Shellie mused. She picked up the photograph, [...] turning the photograph around and pushing it across the table.<br><br>Wye was at the bathroom door, frowning, it looked like he was moving fast.<br>[...]<br>“It’s your choice,” she said. “Lawrence wouldn’t think less of you if you chickened out.”<br><br>Kevin leaned down, staring at the figure at the pump. The background blurred, the details of the figurine shifted.<br><br>He looked closer, then closer still, until he could make out the expression, the lights in the eyes. The distraction, kids in the car. All cast under a green tint.<br><br>Holding the pump with one hand, he reached into the car to take a plastic toy from the hands of squabbling children.<br><br>Plastic generated static electricity, and static electricity became the spark.<br><br>The scene brightened, and Kevin was left blinking the bright orange light out of his eyes.<br>[...]<br>[Shellie] unfolded the box.<br><br>It was the same gas station, but cotton painted in orange and yellow and grey was stretched out to make fire.  Figures lay broken, cars had rolled, and the front windows of the gas station had shattered.<br><br>“Seems he took cover behind the car,” Shellie said.  “He’ll be harder than that to stamp out.”<br><br>The Wye figurine lay there by a crumpled car, one arm broken. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/12/22 Excerpt] from [[Gone Ahead 7.a]]</ref>

It has multiple ways of being opened and used though it shouldn't be opened the same way twice.<ref>
 - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/11 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.z]]</ref> Further it must have the power needed to manifest the diorama otherwise it might damage the user to make up the balance. Seemingly any source is suitable such as [[blood]] or even from the [[Demesne]] it is ensconced in.<ref name=":16" />

With regular infusions of [[power]] the dollhouse can be opened something like ten different ways, paying for more is possible but can't be targeted to the same locations.<ref>Alexander tapped his finger on the Chariot.  “Hmm.  You can close it up and open it again, if you want to see how the scene changes.  Don’t open it up in exactly the same way twice, or it may start getting nasty.”<br>[...]<br>“There are only two possible permutations left with the box’s configuration and opening,” Alexander said.  “You can get others, but you won’t be able to look at the same locations after that.  You’ll need to move elsewhere.  You’ll clean it and return it to me tomorrow?” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/11 Excerpt] form [[Stolen Away 2.z]]</ref>
