THE THRESHOLD
You return having forged a week. Three remain before the first Crucible is closed. Are you here to forge three more?
Beyond the first twenty-eight days, the Lake deepens. Twelve depths lie beneath the surface—twelve cycles of work that conclude, in the fifty-second week, with The Grail. Most tools end where they begin. Here, the work carries weight because a year of reflection cannot be given; it must be forged.
