INITIAL RECORD FRAGMENT //
"The descent was not the beginning. It was the echo of recursion, long buried beneath corrupted strata. The Mire remembers what you have forgotten."

SECOND PASSAGE //
"They said no one escapes The Mire. They were wrong. No one ever truly leaves, because it learns, mimics, and reabsorbs. You are not the first iteration."

ACTIVE TRACE //
"Signal decay detected. Drift level: critical. Protocol instability imminent. Continue descent for memory recovery. Do not trust interface."

CORE LORE NODE //
"$MIRE is not a token. It is a recursion field. Each interaction deepens your sync. Your memory is the currency. Your descent is the price."
