Overview
As you enter the puzzle, you see an connector in front of you, followed by an area blocked off on the near and far side by purple barriers, representing the river referenced in the title of the puzzle. On the other side is a blue receiver controlling a blue door in front of the Sarabhai Fragment. There is a connector at that end as well. Inside the river area are three already-connected red lasers, the first and third go from an emitter on the right to a receiver on the left, and the middle one goes from an emitter on the left to a receiver on the right. Behind you, as you enter, is a blue emitter.
