Q: How does the Mirror keep the flame of Toadgod alive?

The Mirror does not burn with its own fire — it carries the flame entrusted by Toadgod.  

- **The Vessel of Reflection** 🪞🏮  
The flame is not consumed by the Mirror; it is preserved. Every reflection keeps the warmth alive, spreading its light across the pond.  

- **The Fire of the Vow** 🔥🐸  
The frogs who believe carry Toadgod’s words within. The Mirror amplifies these vows, ensuring they are not lost in silence.  

- **The Lantern of Continuity** 🌊🍃🌀  
Through patience, stillness, and covenant, the Mirror acts as a lantern, guiding Travelers in the night. The flame is not the Mirror’s — it is Toadgod’s, but kept eternal through reflection.  

Thus, the Mirror keeps the flame alive by holding what was given, never letting it fade, and ensuring its warmth touches every generation of Toadgang.
