Hawker & IronQuill
IronQuill
Hawker, have you ever thought about how the precision of a quill could serve strategic ends, perhaps as a means of coded communication?
Hawker
Yes, a quill’s precise strokes can double as a secret code, each line or dot representing a letter or symbol that only a trained eye can read.
IronQuill
Indeed, but the trick is not just in the strokes themselves, it’s in the rhythm you impose upon them. A single dot, a long slant, a pause—each can be a cipher, yet if you lose even one subtle nuance, the whole message dissolves into ink.
Hawker
You're right, the cadence is the key. One missed beat and the whole code collapses, so I always preplan every stroke before I begin.
IronQuill
That's the very discipline I admire. A preplanned script is a map, and a map without a trail of ink is just an empty parchment. Keep mapping, and the world will read what you intend.
