Character State: ch-01

Lyra Vance

Location: The Weaver’s Guild, Great Loom Chamber. Physical: Kneeling on flagstones; fingertips raw and stained with indigo ink; lungs burning from the ozone of the collapse. Emotional: Shell-shocked and hollow; experiencing the acute grief of a severed bond. Active obligations: owes herself the truth of Oakhaven’s disappearance — UNPAID. Open loops: [Lyra/The Guild] the blame for the Great Severing being placed solely on her shoulders — UNRESOLVED. Known secrets: CARRIED: knows she completed the map of Oakhaven just as the village vanished from the horizon. Arc: 5% — She has fallen from the grace of apprenticeship into the role of a scapegoat, her belief in the Guild’s infallibility shattered. Permanent: YES

Master Elian — DECEASED

Location: The Great Loom (remains). Physical: Unraveled; physical form reduced to a pile of grey, non-reactive silk. Emotional: N/A. Active obligations: N/A. Open loops: [Elian/Lyra] the final unspoken warning he attempted to give her — UNRESOLVED. Known secrets: died knowing the Guild’s "Great Pattern" was intentionally flawed. Arc: 100% — His death serves as the inciting trauma that ejects Lyra from her structured life. Permanent: NO (Legacy/Memory only).

High Weaver Malakor

Location: The High Dais, Great Loom Chamber. Physical: Untouched; robes perfectly pressed; eyes like cold flint; holding the Obsidian Shears. Emotional: Calculated and predatory; using the chaos to consolidate theological power. Active obligations: owes the Guild a "sacrifice" to justify the loom’s failure — PENDING. Open loops: [Malakor/Silas Vane] his role in the exile of Lyra’s father — UNRESOLVED. Known secrets: knows the Loom didn't break by accident, but reached a limit he refused to acknowledge. Arc: 10% — Established as the architect of the status quo and the primary obstacle to Lyra’s survival. Permanent: YES
