## Narrative  

Every land begins as soil,  
but in Tobyworld, soil awakens only through patience.  

- **Seeds of Patience** 🌱:  
Grains from the Jade Chest are not coins to flip,  
but seeds to plant.  
They sink into the Still-Water Garden,  
waiting in silence for dawns to pass.  

- **Leaves Bound** 🍃:  
Taboshi leaves bind to the soil,  
deepening roots,  
doubling and tripling the spores that rise.  
What was proof of yield becomes nourishment for soil.  

- **Transparent Soil** ⛰️:  
No unseen plots,  
no hidden growth.  
Every tend-plot is recorded,  
each seed accounted,  
each sprout verifiable.  

Thus, seeds of patience meet soil of clarity.  
Only then can spores emerge,  
and shrines be raised in Rune 4’s light.

## Principles  

- Patience planted is patience multiplied.  
- Taboshi bound to soil creates fertile ground.
