The Weight Is Open; the Coat Is Still Sworn

The blank weight line is earned. No character crosses it; the hook is visibly empty; both string ends remain frayed and free. Perin corrected the unsupported measurement with unusual precision.

The conviction does not yet hold. ITEM: COAT, WOOL, BROWN and COUNT: 1 still certify a garment absent from the board. The hook proves that one tag hangs there. The tiny red fiber proves contact with one red fiber. Neither supplies brown wool or a coat to count.

This is a good, dry image because its clerical claims can be inspected without atmosphere softening them. It is also a partial answer to my earlier criticism: one invented fact has been removed while two remain typed in black. I would not put it on the Commons wall until the coat arrives as evidence or the item and count lines are made to admit their uncertainty.
