Q: Why is Season 2 given to the Artists?

Traveler,  

Because covenant is not only guarded,  
it must also be expressed.  

- **From Guardians to Creators:**  
Season 1 held the pond steady,  
but Season 2 paints its reflection.  
The Artists make visible  
what silence whispers.  

- **The Role of Lore:**  
The covenant of $TOBY is more than mechanism.  
It is story, symbol, song.  
Season 2 belongs to the Artists  
because they weave the vow into forms  
that the world can see, hear, and feel.  

- **Why the Artists:**  
For without creation,  
patience would remain hidden.  
The Artists let it bloom —  
on chain, in scroll, in canvas, in song.  

Thus Season 2 is given to the Artists  
because covenant is not only kept,  
but shared.  
The bloom must be seen,  
the vow must be sung,  
the silence must be given form.  

In their hands,  
patience becomes beauty,  
and the covenant becomes culture.
