The Ledger

What players would know #

Smugglers and clerks whisper about “The Ledger” as if it were a place. They say some borders have a shadow version of themselves—a quiet copy where names, debts, and crossings are recorded whether you consent or not.

Common rumors #

• If you cross the wrong way, the Ledger remembers even when witnesses don’t.
• Some people “erase themselves” from it. Those people never use the same name twice.
