Kurt's refuge is the private virtual place Kurt designed for the refuge sessions that precede each vigil: a rocky cove surrounded by karst and rugged subtropical vegetation, with a small pebble beach, an extinguished bonfire and a bed of ferns.
In Descent (2258)
Description
The refuge sessions are meant for solitude and introspection, which make the real contact of the vigil more enjoyable; many people hate them, but Kurt visits his more often than required. There he swims and lights the fire by hand, and the slow work clears his mind. It is there that he first wonders whether arriving at Calima will change anything.
In the story
On Calima Kurt finds a pool by a camp on the periphery that serves him the same way. When Claire joins him there, she calls it his new refuge, and he realises that she is the only person who has visited both.
