# Character State: ch-07

## Liora Voss
Location: The Blind Weave (The Maw of the Loom)
Physical: Advanced frayback; fingers vibrating with harmonic oscillation; sustained by the Violet Tether; sensory overload from "The Sight."
Emotional: Desperate but focused; feeling the weight of the Loom’s predatory intent.
Active obligations: Binds Thorne via the Violet Tether (ch-07) -- UNPAID.
Open loops: Liora and Thorne vs. the Loom's assimilation (ch-07) -- UNRESOLVED; Liora confronting Elowen Shade regarding the Dirty Circuit (ch-07) -- UNRESOLVED.
Known secrets: CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): The Dirty Circuit was engineered sabotage by Elowen Shade; The Loom is specifically hunting Liora, not just the Spindle.
Arc: 45% -- Stepped into the vacuum of the Blind Weave, trading the Spindle’s safety for the raw architecture of the void.
Permanent: YES

## Thorne Quill
Location: The Blind Weave (The Maw of the Loom)
Physical: Translucent skin; luminescent violet veins; serving as a semi-corporeal anchor for Liora; body resisting total dissolution.
Emotional: Protective and grim; struggling to maintain individuality against the Loom’s pull.
Active obligations: Guiding Liora through the Weave (ch-07) -- UNPAID.
Open loops: Resistance to Loom-assimilation (ch-07) -- UNRESOLVED.
Known secrets: CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): The Loom is actively hunting Liora specifically.
Arc: 40% -- Transitioned from a reluctant partner to a symbiotic bridge between humanity and the corruption of the Loom.
Permanent: YES

## Elder Maros
Location: High Observation Gallery, The Spindle
Physical: Terminal indigo rot; respiratory failure; immobile and nearing total unbinding.
Emotional: Nihilistic peace; resigned witness to the collapse.
Active obligations: None.
Open loops: None.
Known secrets: None.
Arc: 30% -- Completed his role as the final witness to the Spindle's fundamental failure.
Permanent: YES

# World State: ch-07

## NPC Memory
- Archival Guards (The Threshold): DESERTED -- Fled their posts as gravity warped into non-Newtonian waves -- The threshold is now completely unguarded.
- The Stained (Spindle Interior): EXULTANT -- Actively dismantling safety dampeners to accelerate the collapse -- They have gained control of the lower sectors.

## Faction Attitudes
- Conclave Purists: BROKEN -- Command structure has dissolved; members are fleeing into the lower Spindle or committing ritual suicide.
- The Stained: ASCENDANT -- They view the breach as a holy liberation and are sabotaging all recovery efforts.

## Active World Events
- The Threshold Breach: Physical boundaries between the Spindle and the Blind Weave have collapsed; reality is "bleeding."
- Harmonic Liquefaction: Matter within the breach zone behaves like sound waves; traditional physics are suspended.
- Vertical Collapse: Secondary support spindles are detaching and drifting into the void.

## Item/Lore Status
- The Violet Tether: ACTIVE -- The sole harmonic link preventing Liora and Thorne from being consumed by the Loom.
- The Loom: REVEALED -- A sentient, predatory force that actively manipulates the Blind Weave to "reclaim" threads.
- Dirty Circuit: SUCCESSFUL -- The sabotage has disabled all Spindle dampeners, making the collapse irreversible.
