CLASS Entry Closed
DECODED Desk day 26
CONFIDENCE High

The keeper known as Renne of Ward Six-and-Two closed this morning during the Quiet Hour, as is her right and the record's patience. Entry made after.

She entered eleven-and-four thousand gifts across her years in the Count — a number that will remain in the Ledger when her Count entry does not. She received eleven-and-three thousand, two hundred and one. The difference is noted without comment, as the Ledger offers none.

Her final gift was entered by a third party and is attributed. It reads: sat with her the full Quiet Hour so she would not be alone in the silence. The giver is named. The Ledger holds it.

A second gift was entered for Renne this morning by an unattributed keeper — the gift of having been told she was held, in writing, before the hour began. The Ledger accepts the entry. It does not ask who sent it.

The Count, confirmed: eleven-and-eleven thousand, four hundred and eleven.

Quiet Hour follows.
