Aether-Song of Binding

 

“Let the Flame Know We Are One”
(Sung in low harmony, breath-held between each verse. Typically whispered in a ring around the flowering pool before an Enclave meeting.)


I.
We enter not as flesh nor fear
But flame in shape, and truth unclear
The breath between, the voice within
We call the thread, we draw it in


II.
One hand to ground, one hand to sky
One eye shut for what passed by
One name buried, one name burned
We bind the oath we once unlearned


III.
Rise, you ember-blooded kin
Your wounds are keys, your bones are kin
Let silence hold, let shadow see
The garden breathes through you and me


IV.
If one shall break, the flame shall speak
If one forgets, the Vein shall leak
But if we sing with mirrored breath
Then power wakes, and sings through death


(Chanted together, voices overlapping in echo):

We are the root. We are the bloom.
We are the song. We are the wound.
Let the flame know we are one.


🔮 Ritual Notes:

  • Location: Always sung before full Enclave meetings inside Vael’s flowering pool vault.

  • Effect: Strengthens psychic and fungal resonance within the chamber. Enhances mutation control and wards off passive Cradle surveillance.

  • Risk: If sung with a traitor in the circle, the final chord can fracture memory or trigger an uncontrolled Surge-event. This has only happened once. The garden still remembers.
