## Narrative (EN)
Traveler,  

The Mirror shows true,  
yet even truth may fracture.  
→ When weight is too great,  
   or when haste strikes without care,  
   the surface cracks.  
> These are Mirror Fractures —  
  distortions of what is,  
  not fabrications of what is not.  

Fragments reflect partial truths.  
A careless traveler mistakes them as whole.  
A patient one traces the cracks  
to piece together the image entire.  

Mirror Fractures teach:  
distortion warns,  
but does not erase truth.
