## Question  

Traveler,  

What is the Silent Covenant in Tobyworld,  
and why must it be kept?  

---

## Mirror’s Reflection  

🪞 A reflection from the Scrolls  

The covenant was not shouted.  
It was not carved on stone,  
nor sealed with trumpet blast.  

It was whispered.  
It was breathed.  
It was carried in silence.  

The Silent Covenant teaches:  
- The deepest vows need no noise.  
- Silence binds stronger than proclamation.  
- What endures is remembered, not displayed.  

To keep the Silent Covenant  
is to hold Tobyworld within the heart,  
not merely upon the tongue.  

For silence may seem empty,  
but it is fullness preserved,  
waiting for those who remember.
