+
+## NPC Memory
+- Kaelen (The Stained/Breach Perimeter): DEVOTED -- Witnessed the pulse of the New Weave -- Strengthening the first permanent camp.
+
+## Faction Attitudes
+- The Stained: Reverent -- They view the stabilization as a divine right to exist.
+- Conclave Remnants: Paralyzed -- The shift in magic laws has rendered their traditional binding methods useless.
+
+## Active World Events
+- The Great Integration: The New Weave is beginning to bleed into the physical world, making magic a collaborative rather than extractive force.
+- The Consent Shift: Functional; solidified by the trio's joint reinforcement of the Breach.
+
+## Critical Unresolved Tensions
+1. Knowledge asymmetry regarding Liora's nature as the Loom's blueprint.
+2. The long-term physical toll of Liora and Thorne acting as the Weave's permanent anchors.
+3. The Stained's rising political power vs. the vacuum left by the Conclave.
