Extel

Codex  ·  Aika  ·  Jun 4, 2026

A folding ladder, lightweight and strong enough to trust.

Collapsed, it fits under an arm.
Extended, it reaches about twenty meters —
enough to bridge most gaps between rooftops,
or drop down to a lower floor,
or climb up to one that has no other entrance.

It works in rain. It works in wind.
You don't need to read the sky before you use it.

Most days in The Shroud,
this is enough.
