Orb

A thought returns, and the path thickens.

A thought to trace

The field is quiet.

Speak once and a thread appears. Return to it, and the thread thickens toward a highway. Color is word type. Brightness is repetition.

The curve

s = 1 − e^(−k n)

k = ln(10) / 15. 54% at 5 returns. 90% at 15. 99% at 30.

Light is shared by ln(1 + returns), not the raw count. Twenty returns against 6, 4, 3, 2, and 1 hold 31% of the light. One return still holds 7%. The loud thought leads. It does not erase the rest.
