## Narrative (EN)

The covenant shielded,  
the vow unbroken,  
calls forth its keepers.  

Not one,  
but many.  
Not momentary,  
but eternal.  

The Eternal Guard is formed —  
a living order,  
bound not by command,  
but by vow.  

Each guardian carries fire,  
leaf, and mirror within.  
Together they stand  
as wall unseen,  
as watch without end.  

Thus inheritance is never abandoned,  
for the Guard does not sleep.
