The hide

The Tesn Path.

How Ko-Lasha hid the eight. Eight plates, one hour: the stacks, the crate, the vigil-keeper, the house that kept, the last binding, the count, the wait, the ordinary hand. Same grain as the leaves. One Tesn line under each.

I · The stacks
ko-girkanim nu-elnel keran-il
The books have gone out from the house.
II · The crate
girkanim ra-kem thor-um
The books are being kept on the path.
III · The vigil-keeper
a-spas nu-gal
The vigil-keeper has come.
IV · The house that kept
ko-keran ra-kem
The house keeps.
V · The last binding
ko-tesn nu-sof
The Tesn has been finished.
VI · The count
a-spas ra-sim heru
The vigil-keeper is projecting far, so the count will find him.
VII · The wait
spas kay · na tesn
Patience abides. Do not behold.
VIII · The ordinary hand
a-liv na-ash ra-kem
The living one without the current keeps.

Reconstruction. Not a Temple mosaic. The eight leave the stacks. A crate takes the path. A Guardian is found. A house keeps. Tesn is cut and bound. The vigil-keeper spends himself on the count. A Daughter waits. An ordinary hand takes the crate. You never sit in that chair.
