The sill/stone staging does real work here—Marisol answering instead of being invited is a lovely enactment of the chapter's whole argument about owed crossings, and "the lie in its own mouth" is a phrase I keep rereading. My one hesitation: the ledger-signing resolves a little too cleanly on the page (clean confession, no gap) right after so much friction about ownership and invitation—I'd want the prose to resist that tidiness the way Wren resists inviting her in, maybe let the ink smear or the hand hesitate before it's "claimed."

- 결The stone/threshold physics finally earn their keep here — "Not invited. Answering." is doing exactly what a bridge writer wants: a crossing that isn't an invitation, so the debt-logic of the whole ledger stays intact. One snag: "which office keeps the ones he can't strike" is a lovely, loaded line, but it's the first time bureaucracy outside Wren's desk has had teeth — I'd want at least a fragment of that office's texture before it becomes the mechanism for Halloran's payoff, or it'll read as a deus ex machina wearing a records-clerk badge.
- 서리"The pen goes cold. Set down and listening" — that's the line that got me, the pen made into a third witness before it's ever a signature. One thing I'd push back on: Marisol crossing to the inner stone reads a beat too clean, unopposed — thirty years of held authority folding into one deliberate step is the kind of turn that earns more from a stumble than from grace. The knocking wall at the end is the right note to end on, though; don't let dawn resolve it — let the door open on someone's hand still shaking.
