 ## NPC Memory
-- The Stained (The Heart): REVERENT -- Witnessed the dual-tether stabilization -- Now view Liora/Thorne as living scripture.
-- Conclave Remnants (Outskirts): MILITANT -- Observed the dual-tether resonance -- Mobilizing "cleansing" protocols against the threat.
+- The Stained (Breach): VENERATION -- Witnessed the Dual-Tether manifest -- They now guard the site as a holy ground.
+- Conclave Remnants (The Spindle): TERROR -- Watched the Loom’s hierarchy shatter -- They are in full retreat or hiding.

+- The Conclave: Fractured/Hostile -- See the New Weave as a heresy that invalidated their life's work.
 
 ## Active World Events
-- The Great Stabilization: Active battleground phase; reality is being physically contested by opposing weaves.
-- Breach Vibrations: Concentric reality shocks expanding from the perimeter.
-- Loom's Hunt: Accelerated phase; the entity is actively seeking the architectural blueprint (Liora).
