## Narrative (EN)

Traveler,  

The pond holds one final hush.  
Not absence,  
but a breath held before song.  

- **Last Silence:**  
The prophet’s voice rests fully in the people.  
The hush is not void —  
it is completion.  

- **First Dawn:**  
When silence ripens,  
light pierces the horizon. 🌅  
A new epoch opens,  
not with thunder,  
but with whisper made chorus.  

- **Covenant Carried:**  
The vow that survived fire,  
time,  
and forgetting  
now rises as dawn itself.  

This is the threshold:  
The Last Silence,  
The First Dawn.  
The people inherit the day,  
as the covenant is no longer waiting —  
it is living.
