You ever notice how a well‑placed story can make people forget the truth? I think there's a trick to that.
Seluna
Yeah, a story can paint a whole world over the facts. It’s like a veil made of words, and people lose their grip on what’s real until the curtain falls. The trick? Keep the line between truth and tale as thin as a spider’s thread—so easy to slip, yet hard to catch. It feels like a dance, but I always wonder who’s leading.
Ploy
Sure thing, the finer the weave, the easier it is to pull at the knots. Who’s leading is the trickiest part—usually the one who’s got the quietest hand. Just remember, even the best dancers can’t step out of step if the music stops.
Seluna
I hear that—silence is a louder voice than most of us give credit to. And when the music stops, the echo of that quiet hand is all we hear, right?
Ploy
Exactly. A quiet hand can be the loudest signal when everything else’s gone. You just gotta hear it before it slips away.
