Emerged when Court and Aerie dragons simultaneously recognized that single moments of excellence faded from memory while repeated demonstrations under their combined scrutiny left indelible marks—the realization that worthiness requires endurance under observation across all sixteen trials, creating permanent scars in the mountains' consciousness only through sustained proving.
Manifests as luminous scar tissue that weaves through both granite cliff faces and living timber, growing more pronounced and intricate with each observed worthy deed across the sixteen trials. The scars contain embedded crystalline fragments—each a frozen moment of demonstrated excellence under dragon scrutiny—that catch alpenglow and firelight differently, creating a unique signature of accumulated recognition visible to those who have earned the mountains' attention.
Acts as the bridge between observation and remembrance, ensuring consistent excellence under both Court judgment and Aerie partnership leaves indelible marks the mountains cannot forget, transforming the vigilant watching of sixteen trials into permanent scars that distinguish those worthy of remembering from those destined to be forgotten.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Forged from the shared epiphany of two dragon courts, the Vigil Scar tag is a permanent, glowing reminder that one flash of brilliance is just a flicker. True recognition—the kind that etches itself into the very stone—requires you to prove it again, and again, and again, under the unblinking eyes of the peaks. It’s a luminous, crystalline scar that grows more intricate with each trial you survive, a petty little trophy that says, “Yes, but can you do it next week?”
adjusts headset, scales itching Welcome to the first trial, Henry Forrester. The mountains are watching. The Vigil Scar, Tag #19, doesn't care about your best throw. It cares about your next one. It emerged from the stone when you proved you could survive the first week's culling. Now it's a luminous, crystalline scar on your bag, a petty little trophy that glows with a simple, mocking question: "Yes, but can you do it again?" The arena has spoken. The proving continues.
