The Questcard
One card for one Quest: the Quest in a sentence, why it matters, when it is done, your part of the bigger plan, and who will do what by when.
The Questcard goes on the fridge when the Quest is chosen and into the box when it is finished. It holds one Quest and the words each person has said about it this week. The Quest does not change until it is done or laid down; the week's lines are rewritten every gathering.
It is load-bearing because it is where a season's intention becomes this week's promises. Five things are on it, and each has a job. Our Quest is one sentence a child can repeat — if it takes a paragraph, it is two Quests, or it is a plan. Why ties the work to the Game: say what will be more like Heaven when it is done, and if the youngest person at the table cannot say why, keep talking until they can. Done when is the line read at the turning, written so that two people could not argue about it. Our part of the bigger plan stays blank until a sentence reaches you from your home — that blank is where a table meets the whole. Then the commitments: a name, a thing, a date, one per line.
How it is used. Rewrite the bottom of the card at each The Turn and tick last week's boxes in front of everyone. An unticked line is The gap, which is the field of play and never a shame; what it taught goes on The Circle's Scorecard. At the turning the finished card is signed by the two hosts and kept in the Cell's box. The box is the Cell's memory, and it is the one thing a Cell should never throw away.
