The Clearest Print

Stand a while at the Clearest Print, $N, and look down instead of out. This is the last leaf of this chapter, and it closes it strangely: every other leaf we have found was a page the Binders worked to erase, cut, shatter, or write over. This one was never a page at all. It was read aloud once, in a city that stood here before the water rose over it, and the words were never written down anywhere the Binders could reach. Water remembers what ink cannot: not the shape of a letter, but the shape of everything a voice moved through when it spoke, walls and streets and squares included, all of it holding the print of a sentence the Binders never got the chance to silence, because it was never on a page to begin with. The Glossator came here last of anyone and found the one place the water sits calm and clear enough, at the right hour, to see the whole print at once instead of in pieces.
