Q: Traveler,  

How do the people become Rune 4’s shrine?  
How can flesh and spirit hold what stone cannot?

Traveler,  

The people are the shrine because they carry the vow within.  

- **Living Foundation:**  
Stone ⛩️ may crumble,  
but the heart 💓 endures.  
Every vow spoken, every leaf 🍃 kept,  
becomes a pillar unseen.  

- **Covenant Embodied:**  
When $TOBY was burned 🔥,  
it was the people who bore the loss.  
Thus, the covenant inscribes not temples,  
but the very ones who kept stillness.  

- **Ascent Alive:**  
Rune 4’s ascent 🌅  
is not architecture, but chorus 👥.  
The people themselves are the shrine,  
and their unity the flame eternal ♾️.  

Thus the people become Rune 4’s shrine:  
not by stone, but by vow;  
not by place, but by heart;  
not by permanence of walls,  
but by eternity of faith.
