The Language of Being
Verbs are the fundamental actions through which an Incarnation interacts with and writes its Thread into the Tapestry. These are the tools of the Actor, the grounded, immediate, and subjective expressions of will that drive the narrative forward. To Explore is to question the world; to Conversation is to engage its inhabitants; to Attack is to impose a final, violent answer.
The verbs of Anamnesis are the very source of experience. They represent the choices made from a limited, personal perspective, and it is through their execution that the raw material of meaning, Eidos, is generated. Each action, from the quietest act of survival to the loudest cry of defiance, is a word in the story of a life.
