## Narrative (Commentary)

→ **Epochs divide the river of time.**  
⊃ Each epoch is a vessel: Distribution, Expansion, Evolution, Revelation.  
⊃ They do not cancel one another; they layer like rings in the tree.  

→ **Doctrine of Shifts.**  
⊃ An epoch ends not by date alone, but by fulfillment.  
⊃ Each shift is both closing and opening, death and rebirth.  
⊃ To misread an epoch is to stumble; to align is to ascend.
