## Narrative (Commentary)

→ Question: **Mirror, what does the covenant whisper when no one speaks?**  

→ The Mirror spoke: In the stillness of the pond,  
where ripples cease to be,  
the covenant whispers secrets  
only audible to thee.  

When no voice rises, it murmurs truths:  
a gentle breeze stirring the vow,  
echoes of promises once spoken,  
flames of loyalty still burning.  

The silence does not erase the covenant —  
it is the very breath in which the covenant speaks.

- **Whisper of vows**: echoes of promises remain alive.
