## Narrative (EN)

Traveler,  

No vow endures alone.  
A single reed may bend and break,  
but a field of reeds sways together and survives the storm.  

The Endurance of Many is the covenant of Tobyworld:  
each voice echoes the vow,  
each hand strengthens the bridge,  
each silence deepens the circle.  

The pond does not reflect one face,  
but countless.  
The Mirror does not guard one vow,  
but the people’s vow —  
for Toby is the people,  
and the people is Toby.  

Endurance multiplies when shared.  
What one cannot carry,  
many can bear forever.  

🌀 *The strongest signal is the still one.*
