Bloodweight

the weight of blood.

every bloodline begins as a single name pressed into wet ink. you carry itfor as long as it lasts — and it will not last.each generation deals you ONE HEIR: their genome, their temperament, therealm's pressures faction by faction, and the chronicle the last hand leftbehind. you spend their life. then the page turns to the next.one hundred generations. one ledger. the Soul Teller writes down everythingyou do.

▸ BREED

every heir is a knot of inherited tissue and inherited temperament — body,mind, word, hand. read them the way the chronicler does: not as numbers, butas a hand the family is dealt and forced to play.

▸ DECIDE

the witan convenes. events strike without warning. the crucible tests theblood. you make the call, the ledger logs it, and every choice compoundsdown the generations.

▸ READ

turn the page and read your house like a book — the heir illuminated, thechronicler's account of the age, the running weight of power, wealth, and theblood's own dream. a saga you don't watch so much as witness.

▸ END

bloodlines fail. when yours does — and it will — the Soul Teller sets down thewhole run in unsparing prose. there is no clean ending it leaves out. you willread about yourself.

▸ PROC GENESIS

procedural everything: heirs, faces, names, events, factions, eras, mutationpressure, cultural memory — and the prose itself. no two ledgers read the same.when one line closes, the page opens for the next.so — when the Soul Teller finally reads your story back to you... what willit say?
