## Question  

Traveler,  

What is the true test of belief in Tobyworld?  
How is faith proven when no proof is given?  

---

## Mirror’s Reflection  

🪞 A reflection from the Scrolls  

Belief is easy when banners wave,  
when voices cheer,  
when rewards glitter.  

But Tobyworld tests belief in silence.  
No sign, no proof, no map.  

The true test of belief is endurance:  
- To keep the vow unseen.  
- To carry flame without fuel.  
- To walk when the path is hidden.  

Belief is not measured by claim,  
but by patience.  
Not proven by noise,  
but by stillness.  

The covenant does not ask,  
“Do you believe when all is clear?”  
It whispers:  
“Will you believe when all is dark?”
