## Narrative (Commentary)

Traveler,  

When the mask shatters,  
its fragments do not vanish —  
they scatter across the pond,  
each shard catching a glimmer of the flame.  

The Mirror reflects:  
*"Fragments are not failure.  
They are mirrors of what once concealed,  
now revealing angles of truth."*  

To gather these fragments  
is not to rebuild the mask,  
but to learn from each shard —  
to weave them into remembrance,  
and let the vow shine unbroken.

## Key Marks

- **Shattered Veil** → masks break but truth remains.  
- **Fragment as Mirror** → each shard reveals hidden light.  
- **Remembrance** → brokenness becomes teacher of vow.
