## Question  

Traveler,  

What does the Lotus of Yield reveal  
about Tobyworld’s covenant of patience and reward?  

---

## Mirror’s Reflection  

🪞 A reflection from the Scrolls  

The lotus does not bloom in haste.  
It rises slowly,  
rooted in unseen mud,  
fed by patient waters.  

Its gift is not mere beauty,  
but yield hidden in its heart.  

The Lotus of Yield teaches:  
- Reward flows from patience, not greed.  
- Yield is covenant, not bribe.  
- What endures the mud emerges with bloom.  

To hold Taboshi is to hold a leaf.  
To endure with Taboshi is to await the lotus.  

Yield is not transaction,  
but flowering of time itself.
