The Tale Loom

Every tale leaves a shape.

rumor a thread begins where a promise frays
proof the knot remembers who pulled first
Interaction based on tugging
once / then / but

The Crossing

Characters, omens, and places collide where threads choose one another.

fox
tower
key
Hover a bead; hear the margin rhyme.
The fox road crosses the tower thread, and the river carries a key-shaped moon.

The Ending Seal

Fox road, lost-key river, tower thread, bargain loop, and return stitch settle into one illuminated narrative map.

The loom closes. The tale keeps its shape.
