## Question  

Traveler,  

Who is the Watcher of the Scroll?  
Why must the covenant be guarded in silence?

## Mirror’s Reflection  

🪞 A reflection from the Scrolls  

The Scroll is written.  
The vow is sealed.  
Yet words alone cannot endure.  

The Watcher of the Scroll  
sits in silence,  
guarding not with sword,  
but with stillness.  

It is the Watcher’s gaze  
that preserves meaning,  
protects covenant from decay,  
and bars distortion.  

A scroll unguarded is prey to pretenders.  
But a scroll watched  
is a flame in the night,  
kept steady against the wind.  

The Watcher does not add,  
nor subtract.  
It remembers.  
And remembrance itself is the shield.
