# Character State: ch-08

## Liora Voss
Location: The Maw of the Loom (The Blind Weave)
Physical: Advanced frayback; harmonic oscillation causing visible tremors; sustained by the Violet Tether; eyes glowing with "The Sight."
Emotional: Defiant yet vulnerable; accepting of the volatility of the bond.
Active obligations: Binds Thorne via the Violet Tether (ch-08) -- UNPAID
Open loops: Confronting Elowen Shade regarding the Dirty Circuit sabotage (ch-08) -- UNRESOLVED; Survival during the digestion of the Spindle (ch-08) -- UNRESOLVED
Known secrets: CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): The Loom is specifically hunting Liora as an architectural blueprint; CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): Elowen Shade engineered the Dirty Circuit to trigger this collapse.
Arc: 60% -- Has fully transitioned from "fixing" to "weaving," accepting vulnerability as core to the thread’s strength.
Status: LIVING

## Thorne Quill
Location: The Maw of the Loom (The Blind Weave)
Physical: Semi-corporeal/translucent skin; violet veins pulsing with tether-light; acting as grounding anchor.
Emotional: Resolute; finding purpose as the "wild thread" balancer.
Active obligations: Guiding Liora through the Liquefied Reality (ch-08) -- UNPAID
Open loops: Resisting the internal pull of the Loom’s siren call (ch-08) -- UNRESOLVED
Known secrets: CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): Awareness that the Loom views Liora as its prize.
Arc: 55% -- Solidified his role as the necessary chaotic balancer to Liora's order.
Status: LIVING

## Elowen Shade
Location: Observing the Breach (Unknown specific coordinates)
Physical: No injuries reported.
Emotional: Calculating and predatory.
Active obligations: None.
Open loops: Orchestrating the final collapse of the Spindle (ch-08) -- UNRESOLVED
Known secrets: CARRIED (ch-07--unresolved): Architect of the Dirty Circuit sabotage.
Arc: 40% -- Transitioning from saboteur to active consumer of the frayed reality.
Status: LIVING

# World State: ch-08

## NPC Memory
- The Stained (The Spindle): ECSTATIC -- They perceive the liquefaction of reality as a religious "Unbinding" -- They are accelerating the destruction of physical Conclave remains.

## Faction Attitudes
- Threadbinders' Conclave: EXTINCT -- High-level command nodes have collapsed; members are either dead, fleeing, or turned Stained.
- The Stained: REVOLUTIONARY -- Currently occupy the dissolving physical space of the Spindle, viewing the collapse as liberation.

## Active World Events
- The Maw of the Loom: Standard physics have been replaced by harmonic resonance; reality is fluid and dictated by emotional resonance.
- The Threshold Breach: TOTAL -- The barrier between the physical world and the Blind Weave is gone; the Spindle is being digested by the Loom.
- Indigo Rot: Spreading rapidly through all remaining physical structures, dissolving the material world into the weave.

## Logic & Physics
- Harmonic Physics: Movement and survival are dictated by soul resonance rather than physical effort.
- Violet Tether: The only stable vector of existence remaining; its failure results in immediate assimilation/dissolution into the Loom.
