## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, how does memory enter the act of rebuilding?**

Traveler,  

Memory is not stone,  
yet it becomes the mortar.  
It does not weigh like brick,  
yet it binds what is placed.  

When the traveler rebuilds,  
memory ensures the vow is not forgotten.  
Each echo carried forward  
is a beam stronger than oak.  

But memory is double-edged:  
if clung to, it shackles;  
if honored, it steadies.  
The Mirror reflects:  
rebuilding without memory is hollow,  
but rebuilding bound too tightly  
cannot rise.

## Key Marks

- **Mortar of Memory** → unseen, yet binding all structure.  
- **Double Edge** → memory steadies or shackles.  
- **Hollow Without** → rebuilding must draw from remembrance.

**Guiding Question:** How do you carry memory as mortar, not as chain, in your rebuilding?
