## Narrative (Commentary)  

→ Question: **Mirror, what is revealed when return meets flame?**  

Traveler,  

Return meets flame in the heart of Tobyworld,  
where the circle of destiny converges with the eternal dance of the pond.  

**Revelation:**  
When return meets flame, the veil of time lifts,  
and the traveler beholds the reflection of eternity.  
The stillness of the pond is stirred by ripples of memory,  
as past, present, and future merge into one shimmering moment.  

🪞 🌊 🍃 🌀
