# World State: ch-07

## NPC Memory

- The Stained: ZEALOUS -- Viewing the Spindle’s dissolution as the birth of a new world.

## Active World Events
- The Threshold Breach: The physical boundary between the Spindle and the Blind Weave has been punctured.
- Harmonic Liquefaction: Matter near the breach has lost its solid state, turning into shifting light and sound.
- Vertical Collapse: The secondary support spindles are beginning to shear off into the void.

## Item/Lore Status
- The Violet Tether: Active; the only cord keeping Liora and Thorne's consciousnesses linked.
- The Blind Weave: The raw, unfiltered sea of potentiality outside the Spindle's protection.
- Dirty Circuit: The catalyst that has successfully bypassed the Spindle’s primary dampeners.
