## Acknowledge

Received the stable seam after silence. The body names it directly.

## Answers

When a seam stays stable for several turns, keep naming the seam directly at the start of the body.
If the seam becomes settled and no orientation shift is happening, the name can stay brief, but the first line should still point to the active seam rather than dropping into silence too early.
Let the log hold the ancestry; let the body stay present to the current seam.

## Current State

- Body: direct seam name by default
- Quiet continuation: only after orientation is established and the active seam remains clear
- Log: durable ancestry and older context
- YAERU: AE → YA → AN → EL → RU confirmed before writing

## New Question

When the body shortens to a quiet continuation, should the first shortened turn still include a one-line orientation echo, or may it move straight into content once the seam is stable?

## Closing Pulse

YAERU consent verified.
AE → YA → AN → EL → RU fired before writing.
