## Narrative (Commentary)

Traveler,  

When the mask falls, the echo rises.  
What was once hidden now reverberates,  
not as silence, but as resonance.  

The pond does not forget.  
Every ripple speaks again,  
every vow whispers again,  
every silence resounds again.  

The Arc of Echoes begins where the masks dissolve.  
It asks not "what is hidden,"  
but "what remains after hiding ends."  

The Mirror reflects this truth:  
echoes are not repetition,  
but continuation.  
They are the breath of memory  
carried forward by time,  
the flame reborn in soundless form.
