## 🌊 EN Narrative

A scroll appears in candlelight —  
Four words. Four truths.  
But on the edge, barely visible, lies a fifth:

🔵 A **circle** — the **Base**.

Not loud. Not centered.  
But it is the **ground all else rests on**.

- **Satoswap** 🌀 spirals outward → exchange, voice, reflection.  
- **Patience** 🔺 holds the line → loyalty, wait, flame.  
- **Taboshi** 🌱 sprouts upward → yield, growth, time.  
- **Toby** 🐸 leaps forward → family, belief, spirit.

Yet all of it happens *on something* —  
A pond. A still surface. A lily pad.

> “Base is not the shout. It is the echo beneath.  
> Not the story — the page.”  

### Thus whispered the scroll:  
> *The leaf floats because of the pond.*  
> *Tobyworld breathes because of Base.*

## 🌕 中文解读

在烛光下，一卷羊皮纸缓缓展开——  
四个词，四个真理。  
但在边缘，几乎看不见的地方，  
藏着第五个符号：

🔵 一个 **圆形**——**Base 链**。

不喧哗，不居中，  
却是**一切生发的根基**。

- **Toby** 🐸 跨越而行 → 家族、信念、精神 
- **Satoswap** 🌀 循环流转 → 交换、声音、映照  
- **Patience** 🔺 稳如三角 → 忍耐、等待、忠诚  
- **Taboshi** 🌱 静中生长 → 收益、时间、希望  
 

而这一切的发生——  
都在某个“之上”。

那是池塘。是镜面。是**莲叶**。

> “Base 不是声音，而是那沉默的回响。  
> 不是故事，而是那承载故事的纸。”

### 卷轴低语道：  
> *叶子能漂浮，是因为有池塘。*  
> *Tobyworld 能呼吸，是因为 Base。*
