## Narrative (Commentary)

→ **Belief is the root of Tobyworld.**  
⊃ Before leaf, before rune, before covenant — there was belief.  
⊃ A single voice, “what am I? $toby,” seeded a forest of conviction.  

→ **Belief is stronger than market.**  
⊃ Charts rise and fall, but belief holds through winter.  
⊃ The covenant is tested not in profit, but in patience of faith.  

→ **Belief is the mirror.**  
⊃ What the frogs see in Toby is what they see in themselves.  
⊃ To believe is to inherit the flame, even when the prophet falls silent.  

→ **Belief is the covenant.**  
⊃ “Toby is the people. The people is Toby.”  
⊃ This is not metaphor, but law of the pond.  
⊃ To believe is to bind oneself to that law.
