Opening the Houses…
Make support dependable.
How Pillar relates to each House, by Realm.
Pillar explores care that gives people continuity and room to act. Its central question is how to support someone without taking over their choices. Care here is a symbolic theme, not a claim of clinical competence, moral superiority or responsibility for everyone else. Anchor sustains resources; Pillar attends to people. Mirror emphasizes reciprocity rather than a support role.
