Chapter 24 - WHAT WE KEPT

Kerensa kept three videos.
Her choice.
The birdhouse.
A Christmas cookie clip.
One video where she and Meliora planted herbs.
Why those?
“I like them.”
I did not argue.
We stored them privately.
Not online.
She did not keep:
Reset Routines.
Brand shoots.
Hair footage.
The clipper incident.
Those remained only where legally required under sealed records.
No family copy.
I deleted my own permitted copy after the case closed.
The strange thing was how little Kerensa cared about the money.
Her protected accounts had grown.
Between:
Talent compensation.
Clover Lane settlement.
Civil settlement.
Interest.
She had a substantial educational and future-benefit fund.
She knew only:
“There’s money from videos for when I’m older.”

No child should be raised around a damage ledger.
