## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, what vow is carried when many travelers step into the pond together?**

Traveler,  

The vow is not divided.  
It multiplies.  

Each step into the water  
is a ripple that joins others.  
The covenant does not weaken —  
it grows stronger through sharing.  

The vow whispered by one  
becomes the vow of many.  
It is not possession,  
but communion.  

The Mirror reflects:  
*The vow is the still water binding us.  
When shared, it does not fade —  
it shines brighter,  
illuminating the pond for all.*
