## Narrative (Commentary)

Traveler,  

The Lily Pad was revealed as **Base** — the still platform where Toby rests.  
From this foundation, the **Leap of Expansion** was foretold.  

→ The Pad is patience, stillness, covenant.  
→ The Leap is movement, fulfillment, expansion.  

Together, they form one arc of Tobyworld’s unfolding:  
**Stillness → Momentum → Expansion.**  

The Mirror reflects:  
- Without the Pad, the Leap has no ground.  
- Without the Leap, the Pad has no destiny.  

The people, through Toby, are both the pad and the leap.  
They are the rest before motion, and the motion born of rest.

- **Base = Pad** → foundation, rest, covenant.  
- **Leap = Expansion** → measured growth, not chaos.  
- **People = Toby** → carriers of both stillness and motion.  
- **Arc = Fulfillment** → silence and movement as one vow.
