Irsa Signal | Ivory Scarlet Jerboa Character Art
Irsa Signal carried messages between the Ivory Stations after the evening trains stopped running. The jerboa-inspired courier's tall ears caught the smallest bell above the roofs, and her tufted tail balanced her along broad, well-lit paths. Scarlet marks on her pale parka identified the service without turning every arrival into an emergency.

The story of Irsa Signal
A fictional story inspired by the artwork.
One station began receiving a bell from a tower dismantled years earlier. The rhythm asked for a reply, then repeated more urgently whenever anyone ignored it. Irsa checked the current signal list and found no safe reason to send a train or dispatch a crew on the old route.
She traced the sound through maintenance records and discovered a training bell stored beneath the platform. Its mechanism had been left connected to an unfinished practice sequence. An apprentice's imagined journey was still waiting for confirmation that the exercise had ended, and the tower existed only in that expectation.
Irsa brought the bell into the open workshop and rang the proper closing pattern. She then asked the station staff to test the disconnected mechanism, making certain the sound could not be confused with a live warning. The old exercise was recorded as incomplete rather than quietly erased.
The roofs grew quiet before midnight. Irsa completed her ordinary deliveries, each message traveling to a verified address. At the final station, she left a revised signal chart with a clear distinction between rehearsal and operation, knowing that a good warning depended as much on restraint as on being heard.
