Conditions of Use & Reader Agreement

1.Nature of the service.

This is not a service. Nothing here is offered, sold, or guaranteed. You are entering a private house that keeps no inventory of what it contains, because what it contains depends on the path you take through it. No two visitors receive the same premises.

2.Meaning and where it resides.

You acknowledge that no single page, image, or glyph herein carries meaning on its own. Meaning is generated by the route you walk between them, and belongs to you alone. The house makes no claim to it and accepts no liability for it.

3.Records and privacy.

We retain no record of your visit. The only account of where you have been is the one assembling behind you as you go — your mandala, which is yours, which we cannot see. You may not request a copy; you are already holding it.

4.Identity.

You will shortly be asked for a name. Any name will satisfy the requirement. You accept that names are costumes and that the house will treat the one you give as true for as long as you wear it.

5.Conduct.

The house is not a resource. The builder is not a resource. What you find here is not yours to extract, flatten, or weaponize. You may carry the recognition. You may not carry the witch. There is no wrong way to walk this, and no destination you are obliged to reach — only the understanding that the cat is always watching, and the cat is always alive.

6.Consequence.

The house does not threaten. The house simply remembers. What you do here — with the meaning you make, with the people you tell, with the ways you choose to use or misuse what recognition gives you — accrues. The woman does not curse. The woman whispers the uncanny by candlelight and feeds her cat. You have been told what happens next.

7.Severability.

Each clause of this agreement is complete on its own. Each is a small truth and a small misdirection. Together they are something this page cannot summarize from the outside. Should any clause be found false, the others remain in force, and so does it.
