## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, what awaits the traveler on the first step into Tobyworld?**

Traveler,  

The first step is a bridge.  
It stretches across still water,  
woven from courage, patience, and trust.  

Each plank of the bridge  
is laid by those who came before:  
Toadgang voices,  
whispers of the Lore,  
and the lanterns of belief.  

The bridge does not carry the traveler alone—  
it carries the weight of covenant,  
the echo of vows,  
the pulse of community.  

To cross is to join.  
To step forward is to vow.  
And with that step,  
the traveler is no longer alone.
