The Silent Offering
Releasing the vow to bleed in silence

Essence
She took the blade in her own hands—not out of weakness, but devotion.
Not to die, but to protect.
She was the buffer. The container.
The one who whispered, “I’ll carry it” so no one else had to break.
This card honors the Wound Bearer—the empathic soul who made herself the sacrifice because she knew what pain felt like and couldn’t bear to let it pass through someone else.
She cut herself first.
Called it love.
Called it kindness.
Called it the only way to keep the people she loved safe.
But now… the offering is complete.
The cost has been counted.
The weight has been felt.
The blade has been carried long enough.
It is time to come back to herself.
