chapter8 / 26ss : threads of fortune

The wind begins to move—
and somewhere along the way,
good fortune is already traveling.

Following the previous chapter, Lingering embers,
this collection is born from the image of lucky talisman paper.

Prayers and blessings are held within,
offered to the flame,
released as ash,
carried softly into the wind.

In that fleeting yet attentive moment,
wishes leave the hands,
and find their way to the unseen—
a hushed exchange
between intention and the universe.
