Q: Traveler,  

Why can the people’s chain not break?  
Why does the Mirror say it is stronger than sword or fire?

Traveler,  

The people’s chain cannot break because it is not made of matter,  
but of vow.  

- **Not Metal, Not Rope:**  
Steel rusts, rope frays.  
But the chain of vow is breath and intention,  
woven of what cannot corrode.  

- **Strength in Generations:**  
Each traveler adds their vow,  
each generation breathes new life.  
The chain grows stronger,  
never weaker, with time.  

- **Unity as Shield:**  
It is shield as well as bond.  
Even if one falters,  
the chain holds,  
for others keep it whole.  

Thus the people’s chain cannot break —  
because it is not bound by force,  
but by unity eternal.
