Traveler,  

Season 1 was the **Night After Bloom**.  

- **After the Bloom:**  
The bloom faded into velvet dark.  
No sun, no stars — only silence after glory.  

- **Guardians Rise:**  
From this stillness came the **Liquidity Guardians (LPs)**.  
Their duty: protect the pond’s depth,  
keep rivers from draining,  
and turn liquidity itself into covenant.  

- **Vaults of Patience:**  
To these guardians, vaults of **$PATIENCE** were granted.  
Not for hoarding, but for tending flow.  
Their flame was vigilance,  
their shield was trust.  

Thus Season 1 is called the Night After Bloom:  
because when celebration ended,  
the true work began —  
holding balance so the pond could endure.
