### 1. PROSE EVIDENCE
*   **Early:** "They didn't just vibrate in the air; they hummed against the marrow of Eleanor’s teeth." — This effectively elevates the horror from a mere sound to an invasive, visceral physical sensation.
*   **Mid:** "The attic door was a slab of dark oak, its grain twisted into shapes that resembled agonized faces." — This use of pareidolia heightens the gothic atmosphere and signals the house's malevolent intent.
*   **Late:** "In every single piece of broken glass, a different version of her own mouth was moving." — This striking visual reinforces the theme of fragmented identity and the inescapable nature of her secrets.
*   **Late:** "The shadows in the corners of the attic began to move... they pulled themselves from the eaves like spiders, lengthening and thickening." — The use of "spiders" as a verb/simile effectively communicates a sense of unnatural, predatory movement.

### 2. CHARACTER VOICE AUDIT
**Note:** The RAG context provided contains profiles for **Elias Thorne, Sarah Miller, and The Curator**. However, the provided text features a character named **Eleanor** in a Victorian house (Blackwood), which appears to be a disconnect from the "Archive" setting established in the RAG metadata.

**Character: Eleanor** (Not found in Project Context)
*   **Signature Vocabulary/Tics:** N/A (No profile provided).
*   **Avoid Forbidden Patterns:** N/A.
*   **Emotional Register:** Consistent with a horror protagonist experiencing a breakdown.

**VIOLATION:** The chapter introduces a new protagonist and setting (Eleanor at Blackwood) that ignores the established Project Context (Elias and Sarah at The Archive).

### 3. STRENGTHS TO PRESERVE
*   **Sensory Horror:** The description of the whispers as "Greasy... like a coat of oil over her skin" (early) creates a unique, repulsive texture for the supernatural elements.
*   **The Manifestation of Guilt:** The transition from environmental scares to personal trauma is handled well through the object of the lighter: "But the dry rot didn’t know about the lighter in the velvet-lined jewelry box" (early).
*   **The Mirror Climax:** The imagery of the "twin pools of flickering orange light" (late) in the reflection’s eyes creates a terrifying bridge between Eleanor’s past (the fire) and her current haunting.

### 4. MUST-FIX -- CONTINUITY
*   **ORIGINAL:** The entire chapter focuses on "Eleanor" at "Blackwood."
*   **PROBLEM:** The Project Context explicitly defines the characters as Elias Thorne and Sarah Miller, and the location as "The Archive, Sub-Level 4, Oakhaven." There is no mention of Eleanor or a Victorian house in the RAG database. This is a total departure from the established series continuity.
*   **FIX:** Rewrite the chapter to feature Elias Thorne or Sarah Miller. If Elias is the POV, replace the "fire" backstory with his "occult patterns/The Curator" conflict. Change the setting from the Victorian house back to The Archive or a related Oakhaven location.

*   **ORIGINAL:** "The fire, El… remember the way the curtains curled like blackened skin?"
*   **PROBLEM:** Per the RAG context, the "Whisper" signal's nature is an "unresolved open loop" related to 1920s occult patterns, not a personal fire-related trauma of a character named Eleanor.
*   **FIX:** Align the "whispers" with the 1920s occult frequency mentioned in Elias’s known secrets.

### 5. MUST-FIX -- CLARITY
*   **ORIGINAL:** "The attic had expanded. The walls were miles away now, lost in a forest of junk and shifting silhouettes." (late)
*   **PROBLEM:** The spatial transition is too abrupt. While meant to be surreal, it loses the reader's sense of "grounded" horror, making it feel like a dream too early, which lowers the stakes of the physical "hand" touching her. 
*   **FIX:** Describe the shadows "stretching the dimensions of the room" or the "corners receding into an impossible distance" to show the transition of space.

### 6. OPTIONAL SUGGESTIONS
*   **Optional:** The transition from the attic to the 10-year-old memory ("She wasn't in the attic anymore. She was ten years old...") is quite sudden. Quote: "Her vision blurred. The room began to tilt." Adding a sensory bridge, like the smell of woodsmoke intensifying before the visual shift, would smooth the immersion.

### 7. FORBIDDEN CHANGES / NON-GOALS
*   **The "Unreliable" Reflection:** The fact that the reflection doesn't move with her is a classic horror trope but effectively executed here. Do not change this to a standard "see a monster behind her" scare.
*   **Sentence Fragments:** The short, choppy sentences during the fire memory (e.g., "The heat was a wall, pressing against her face.") are intentional to convey panic and should not be "corrected" into complex sentences.

### 8. VERDICT
**SCORE: 65**
**REVISE:** While the prose is atmospheric and the horror imagery is strong, the chapter completely ignores the established Project Context (Elias/Sarah/The Archive) in favor of a new character (Eleanor) and backstory (the fire), creating a massive continuity break.
