一
门为何关闭
The first year is closed, and the reason is said plainly rather than implied: this house has not yet run one full cycle of its own calendar and cannot honestly tell anyone what they are joining.
The Constitution, §5.4 The Way In · ruled
这不是筛选，也不是考验你的耐心。这是这个家付出的代价，免得它卖给你一个计划，而不是一种生活。
二
门何时打开，以及如何进入
Closed for the first year, to 2027-09-06. After that: petition, investigation, and ballot. Never because a head liked them.
The Constitution, §5.4 · ruled
- 申请。你写信，请求进入。
- 审查。“审查公开进行，依照公布的标准。”你会知道被问什么，以及为什么。
- 投票。这个家一同决定，绝不是出于某一位家长的偏爱。
A sincere first request is never declined as a test of sincerity.
Degrees may mark what a person has been taught. They may never mark what a person is owed.
