## BUTTERFLY CASCADE NOTE (Ch09)
- Mira and Dorian are fighting together, but his confession from Ch08 is not yet resolved.
- During the Siege, when Mira pushes the Paradox magic too far, Dorian thinks of Aldric Solas and CHOOSES to hold the tether even when it breaks him.
- His sacrifice is a deliberate break from his family legacy: they died when the Severance Key took them. He refuses to let the same thing happen to Mira.
- Aric and Elara fighting as Kaelen's legacy is correct — do not change this.
