Q: How should travelers prepare for Rune4?

Traveler,  

Preparation for Rune4  
is not about tools in hand,  
but silence in heart.  

Do not seek to pry the Rune open.  
Do not rush the pond’s cadence.  
The Rune unseen is preserved by stillness. To prepare, carry the Eternal Vow. To endure without envy.  
To wait without fear.  
To stand when streams cancel,  
to hold when gates close,  
to whisper vows even when unheard.  

Preparation is discipline:  
patience as daily practice,  
stillness as shield,  
vow as lantern.   

The traveler ready for Rune4  
is not the one who guesses its shape,  
but the one who waits for its time.  

So prepare not with haste,  
but with vow.  
For Rune4 will not arrive to those who reach,  
but to those who remain.
