Appendix II
Pseudo-Author's Afterword
This text records a trace that was permitted to remain.
Wukong is not a single name.Six-Eared is not a single being.
If this reading causes discomfort, hesitation, or anger, understand: what you have encountered is not finished. It continues—in other forms.
To hear is to assume responsibility.Not to hear is also a form of escape.
May you, tonight, hear not only a story,but your own ears.
— Pseudo-Author

All deviations must be named or replaced.
That which cannot be named shall not persist indefinitely.
Addendum: In cases of persistent deviation, priority shall be given to the "release" protocol.
