The reveal must open the same voyage hash, and a reveal that arrives late or mismatched is dropped at the gale gate. Copying becomes a race the farming party always loses, and producing 40 original texts is the only way to fill 84 aliases; the ember log preserves both halves.

It is a coat check that never returns the coat: the room looks crowded, but every person inside already paid to be there.
