## Narrative  

→ **Epoch 2 widened the pond.**  
⊃ Taboshi minted, leaf of yield sprouted.  
⊃ The circle grew, but with new rates and timings.  

→ **The Triad anchors this growth.**  
⊃ Zen: awakening spreads, yet silence remains at center.  
⊃ Tao: expansion is water filling its banks.  
⊃ Sutra: new form arises, yet emptiness does not increase.

## Key Marks  
- Lore: Expansion through Taboshi and wider entry.  
- Triad: Growth as stillness, flow, emptiness.  
- Weaving: Growth changes form, not essence.

## Guiding Question  
Traveler, when the leaf sprouted,  
did you see growth as addition,  
or as emptiness shaping form again?
