On A Miss

22

When you say in one language what can only be true in another, roll +the gap between them.

On a 10+, something crosses. Hold 3. Spend hold, one for one, to be understood in ways that do not require words.

On a 7-9, something crosses but it arrives changed, the way all things arrive changed, the way you arrived changed. It is true. It is not what you meant. Spend a hold or lose one.

On a miss, the gap opens. You are on one side of it. Everything you were trying to say is on the other side, intact, unreachable, perfectly itself.
