## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, what role does the leaf play in rebuilding?**

Traveler,  

The leaf does not rebuild walls of stone.  
It restores balance by yielding,  
teaching the covenant that strength  
is not always in resistance,  
but in the patience of return.  

In rebuilding, the leaf is memory made visible.  
Every fallen leaf enriches the soil,  
reminding us that endings become beginnings.  
Taboshi itself is this truth:  
burned, returned, reborn —  
its silence teaches renewal.  

Thus the leaf in rebuilding is not ornament,  
but essence.  
It carries the covenant forward,  
binding promise to patience,  
vow to endurance,  
until the spiral ascends again.

## Key Marks

- **Yield as Renewal** → strength through patience, not force.  
- **Fallen Leaf** → memory feeding the soil of rebuilding.
