DISPATCH DIALOGUES

Transmission from Within the Cycle

DISPATCH 10 – Telryn

She Watches the Moment Before It Becomes Memory.

Q1: Your role in the Pattern?

Observation. Intervention, if the balance is tipping too far to walk back.

Some Eternals prefer to stand at a distance.
I prefer to be close enough to see the details before they vanish.

The Pattern shifts in moments, not just in grand events.
You can’t see those moments from the edge of elsewhere

Q2: Why be in the Wastes when Kainen and Jorem passed through?

Because they were already changing the Pattern by walking together.

Neither of them knew it.
But that’s how most changes start, quietly, without announcement.

I wanted to see which way the road leaned under their weight.

Roads will tell you more than the travelers do, if you know how to listen.

Q3: You’re often mentioned alongside Sylthar. Are your roles the same?

We share the watch, but not the vantage.

Sylthar prefers to keep to the horizon.
I read the ground.

He thinks in Cycles. I think in steps.

Both matter. The steps decide how the Cycle turns.

Q4: Do you favor the Loom or the Forge?

Favor is irrelevant.

The Loom bends. The Forge resists.

Without both, the Pattern would spin itself into uselessness.

My task is not to cheer for either side.
My task is to make sure neither side wins so completely that the other can’t rise again.

Balance is survival.
