The Houses

Twenty-six houses, one for each letter. A username chooses a house by its first letter — that is the role. The two letters that weigh most after that set the manner (how the role works) and the field (where). Those three letters mix a color — house half, manner three-tenths, field two-tenths. See the pigments on the Circle of Houses.

Old tables call this The prophetic voice · conscience of the groupAir · the high place · the unwelcome word. A likeness, not a creed.

The prophet is not a fortune-teller and not a brand. You remember the vow. Hope without a backbone is entertainment. A backbone without hospitality is a weapon.

The Pure Prophet

HHH · House of the Prophet

You say what the group said it loved, when the group has started living otherwise.

Old tables call this The prophetic voice · conscience of the groupAir · the high place · the unwelcome word. A likeness, not a creed.

The prophet is not a fortune-teller and not a brand. You remember the vow. Hope without a backbone is entertainment. A backbone without hospitality is a weapon.

You stand as the Prophet. You will not let a family, a craft, or a culture forget its own vow. You see what is coming. The task is to say it in a language the living can hear, then stay for the meal. The manner is far-seeing. You offer the longer view without forcing anyone to kneel to it. Hospitality is how your vision stays from becoming a sermon. The realm is the Vista — the far line that organizes today's table. A vision that cannot help anyone through an ordinary day is just talk. When the Prophet doubles, the near is neglected. Set the nearest table. The future is fed by the present meal. The Pure Prophet is prophet work done in a far-seeing way, on the path of the Vista.

When it fails

You live so far ahead of the room that you cannot sit down. The future becomes a stick you use on people.

When it works

A longer honesty that still feeds people. You speak the far line and keep the near table.

Keep the far line, and be decent to the person already in the room. Keep the far line, and be decent to the person already in the room.

Horizon names the house (the role); horizon is the manner (how); horizon is the field (where).

Field · the third letter

Where the work happens — the kind of place, not a job title.
