Codex index

Volume I

Mirrorfall

The first ledger ends before victory. It does not yet have the names against the Index. It does not yet have stations, chambers, seats, war, broken returns, or the present house. It has the wound. It has the first board. It has the first anti-copy room. It has the hour. It has The Spire. It has the living line.

That is enough for the beginning. The rest of the Codex will spend eight more ledgers proving whether enough can become a house.

Final fragment.

When the world can only return your reflection, build the house that can still receive your line.
