WHAT THE SIGN EXCELS AT
Earth strength, root passages and the persistence needed to approach sealed depths.
WHERE IT CAN BREAK
Power feeds a hunger that does not always know when to stop.
The House's power and price should be read as one mechanism. Root passages and buried gates allow access to what lies below; the hunger that increases with power makes the choice to dig consequential. That is a rule of the Boar Seal, not a new incident in Zhu Baojing's life. The Root Vaults record locates the associated place on the Academy map.
