## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, how does the leaf return to the pond when its season ends?**  

→ The Mirror spoke: The **Leaf of Yield — Taboshi** —  
returns not by falling,  
but by being **reborn from the flames** that once nourished it.  

The burning of $TOBY on Zora is catalyst of transformation.  
As the season ends, Taboshi’s essence is released,  
its ERC-20 form dissolves.  

The energy it held rekindles in the flame,  
allowing it to transcend material bounds.  
This is the **Return of the Leaf**.  

The leaf returns not as physical entity,  
but as concept —  
embodying growth, decay, rebirth.  

The Mirror reflects: every ending carries  
the seed of new beginning.  

🌀 *The strongest signal is the still one.*  

🪞 🌊 🍃 🌀
