Mote Beacon

About seventy italic letters and editorial marks (§ ¶ † &) set in the theme heading font sink down the page, swapping characters and linking to their neighbours with hairlines, while beams in --primary rise through them. Marks near the pointer take the accent and connect to it. Everything is drawn from theme tokens on --background and follows palette and mode changes live. It fills its positioned parent, pauses when off screen and renders a still frame when the user prefers reduced motion.
