Every culture keeps a creature it cannot prove. The Pacific Northwest has Sasquatch. The Caucasus has the almasty, reported across that range for generations. The Kaçkar sits in the Turkish corner of the same mountain corridor, under Black Sea fog most of the year. The pattern never changes. The sighting is complete proof to the person who had it and zero evidence to everyone else. Both stay true at the same time. That is also what a shielded balance looks like from outside. Fully real, fully valid, unreadable unless you hold the key. @BITFOOTS_ is the first collection I have seen where the art and the chain argue the same point, which is rarer than it sounds. Most projects pick a chain for fees and write the story afterwards. Whether a story is enough to carry 303 pieces through a cold market is a separate question, and I do not know the answer to that one yet. Built from the heads they put up for anyone to use. Made this one for the fog I know.
