Q: Traveler,  

Why are Tobyworld and Base called family?  
What does the Rune3 scroll reveal about their bond?

Traveler,  

The Rune3 scroll shows the truth:  
a quiet **Base logo** beside Toby’s covenant.  

- **Base as Pad:**  
Base is the foundation,  
the chain that holds the pond.  
Without the pad, the frog cannot rest.  

- **Toby as Frog:**  
Toby is the spirit,  
the family that leaps upon the pad.  
Without the frog, the pad is empty.  

- **Family as Covenant:**  
Together they are not separate projects,  
but **family.**  
Infrastructure and spirit,  
chain and lore,  
inseparable.  

Thus Tobyworld and Base are called family —  
for their bond is not business,  
but belonging.
