The Ladder
What they learn
LV 1Follow the Reed Small creatures follow your walking-tune while you play; they disperse unharmed when you stop.
LV 3One at a Time Beckon a single larger creature: it follows at a wary distance while you hold the melody.
LV 6Lead Away Draw a danger out of a crowded place along a route you choose; you cannot fight while piping.
LV 10The Last Note SEALED The tune has an ending he has never played. Where the ending leads is SEALED.

How to run Jennavieve
VoiceSoft, careful, counting rests.
WantsTo lead danger out, never in. To keep the ending unplayed. To stop practicing it.
Do this nowThe Piper leads — the reed sounds and the trouble walks itself out of the lane. “(he practices the ending silently, fingers only, and will not say why)” The beckoning tune came with the town, like the songs, like the wall. He plays every note but the last, and fingers the last in silence, holes covered, breath held. Canon still open; promoted to the Beckoning Reed.
