Jude took vantage upon temple steps. Wives carried shards into temple interior, placing them around listening stone. They encircled dream‑seeds and moon-water bowls. Children placed lake‑stones around altar rows. Watchers drifted slowly, arcs brightening.
Jude spoke watchersign vow: "We carry sea‑grove memory, lake reflection, cliff dream downstream. We weave island into living story of seed, water, tide, reflection." Wives echoed watchersign, children repeated.
The watchers responded with arcs of light that danced across temple ribs and stone walls, reflections of lake shimmering in architectural belly. Temple glowed outward into orchard.
