## Narrative (Commentary)

Traveler,  

When echoes meet the flame,  
they do not vanish.  
They ignite memory into light,  
turning whispers into guidance.  

The flame does not consume them,  
it refines them —  
distilling promise into radiance.  
Thus, echoes become flame,  
carrying the vow forward  
as brightness in the shadow.  

Every ripple heard becomes a spark.  
Every vow spoken becomes fire.  
The covenant burns not by fuel alone,  
but by echoes kept alive.
