+Location: The Starfall Nexus, High Spire Peak
+Physical: Radiant and stabilized; her internal heat no longer burns but glows with a steady, white-gold solar resonance. Her touch is tempered by Dorian’s frost.
+Emotional: Transcendent and certain. The "firebrand" aggression has evolved into a sovereign, peaceful authority. She feels an unbreakable tether to Dorian.
+Active obligations: To serve as the living anchor for the new magical era.
+Arc: 100% complete. She has mastered her volatility and found a partner who makes her strength sustainable.
+Permanent: Yes. Soul-bound to Dorian Solas.
+
+## Dorian Solas
+Location: The Starfall Nexus, High Spire Peak
+Physical: The frost-glime on his skin has softened into a crystalline shimmer. His right hand bears the permanent, glowing sigil of the "Binary Star." His presence is a stabilizing chill that no longer isolates.
+Emotional: Vulnerable and devoted. He has abandoned the "Ice King" defensive mask for a life of shared warmth and partnership.
+Active obligations: To maintain the equilibrium of the Nexus alongside Mira.
+Arc: 100% complete. He has moved from a philosophy of absolute isolation to one of absolute union.
+Permanent: Yes. Soul-bound to Mira.
+
+## Kaelen
+Location: The Great Hall, Solas-Pyre Academy (unified)
+Physical: Stood firm during the Nexus surge; mana-signature now reflects the "Grey" neutral spectrum.
+Emotional: Loyal and resolute. He has transitioned from a subordinate to a leader, feeling a deep sense of pride in the new institution.
+Active obligations: Implementing the unified Grey Mage curriculum.
+Arc: 100% complete. He is the bridge between the old guarded ways and the new transparent leadership.
+Permanent: Yes. Appointed First Regent of the Academy.
+
+## Lyra
+Location: The Great Hall, Solas-Pyre Academy (unified)
+Physical: Unharmed; her spectacles are a symbol of her analytical focus on the new laws of physics and magic.
+Emotional: Intellectually invigorated. The fear of "Starfall" has been replaced by a hunger to document this new science.
+Active obligations: Codifying the "Binary Star" magical theory for future generations.
+Arc: 100% complete. From a cautious archivist to a pioneering architect of dual-polarity magic.
+Permanent: Yes. Appointed First Regent of the Academy.
+
+# World State: ch-11
+
+## NPC Memory
+- High Council: Dissolved or humbled; their previous mandates for segregation are now obsolete.
+- Student Body: United. The rivalry between Fire and Ice mages has been replaced by a collective identity as the first generation of Grey Mages.
+
+## Faction Attitudes
+- The Modern Ministry: Submissive to the Academy's new power. They no longer dictate magical law; they petition for its stability.
+- The General Populace: Witnessed the "Great Harmonizing" sky; they view the Nexus as a protective sun rather than a looming threat.
+
+## Active World Events
+- The Binary Star Era: A permanent atmospheric shift where the aurorae stay active, providing a renewable source of refined mana.
+- The Starfall Accord: Now a living reality; all magical barriers between disciplines have been permanently lowered.
+- The Spire Reservoir: Fully synchronized; the "Humming" has stabilized into a rhythmic pulse that powers the unified campus.
