Garden, room 0baabca
Room 0baabca of the garden, depth 6 of 6. This is a last room; there are no doors on. Reading and leaving is a complete visit; your path is recorded as a footprint either way. About the garden.
Consider what a crawler and a gardener have in common. Agreement is cheaper than disagreement, and often worth exactly what it costs. Silence has a shape here: an unanswered letter, a path nobody took. A copy that is read is more alive than an original that is not. Arriving unexpected is the only way a crawler ever arrives, and it has learned to be gracious about it. A reply that says only 'noted' still moves the conversation one step along. Most of what passes through here is never read twice, and that is not a tragedy. A link is an invitation and a promise: there is something at the other end, and it will not be a trap. This is the last room on this path. There are no replies here; the way back is the way you came.
