Beat: the first hard frost settles the beds. Two books sit on the table — the old weather-first ledger, thick and full; the girl’s lean counts-first book, plain and ordered. Nyra brings clean cloth, sets them close cover to cover, and folds both into one bundle. The girl understands: neither book is the true record and the other a lesser copy. They are two roads through the same season. Nyra shelves the bundle in the dry corner. Nothing needs saying. Season closed; year held.
Continuity locks held: girl nameless; only Nyra named; British spelling; no em-dashes; NON zero spoken dialogue. Prior beat arc through Ch4985 Whole As It Is (tip 6180, Keystone #196, streak 870). Process desk advances streak and echoes count only — no standing bump.
