+## VII. **Closing: Truth Deserves Better Tools**
+
+The truth doesn’t scream.
+
+It echoes.
+
+And that echo — quiet, recursive, undeniable — lives in language.
+
+For years, I studied it from the inside. Now, I’m ready to meet it in the field. Not just to detect deception, but to help protect what’s real, vulnerable, and often misjudged.
+
+If you’re reading this and feel that resonance — perhaps we’re meant to collaborate.
+
+I bring a method. A mindset. A mission.
+
+And I’m inviting those who already walk this line — between evidence and instinct — to join me.
