No. II · A potion of Memory
Moonwater Vow
Distilled under a waning moon. Worn to be remembered.
The House kept basins of silver on the cathedral roof and gathered rain only on the nights the moon was losing itself. Moonwater, the perfumers called it — water that remembers light it no longer has.
A vow sealed in this potion was said to outlive the lovers who made it. Brides wore it so the day could not slip away. Spies wore it so a single passing in a corridor would haunt a man for years. It is the quietest potion in the vault, and the one whispered about most.

The ritual — A single drop at each wrist, pressed together once — as if closing a book you intend to reopen.
