What a well-imagined fantasy. You weave this tale with fine details and, as @cira1964 comments, you draw us in. This is very original. Larke is a delightful character. The lake that is really a pond. The key grandmother left. An aunt that doesn't like questions. It is a gentle mystery with a charming resolution
