STATIC DUST AFTERMATH CYCLE
ARCHIVE ENTRY 010
Not every weapon is made of steel.
Some are sentences rehearsed for years.
Some are memories sharpened into retaliation.
Some are versions of yourself preserved only for the day someone deserves to be hurt back.
Cinder Mercy documents the decision to destroy the ammunition while preserving the record.
Nothing is forgotten.
Nothing is denied.
Only the future harm is removed from circulation.
(noun)

EXPANDED MEANING
