Eric's final layer on the torus lesson: humans see center tiles and
aim there, so the center-perceived seat pays an attention tax — and a
strong player arbitrages the gap between how the board looks and how
it routes. The bots, running true-graph BFS, have neither the bias
nor the ability to exploit it.

Eric's framing after the six-player postmortem: on wrap boards one
sector shift breaks every curved warp at once — the card's payload is
the whole table's stale mental maps. The skill now says to hold it for
the moment an enemy plan leans on a wrap, and never to build a plan
whose only road is a warp while an opponent might hold it.

Eric, after game eleven: the warping edges mean there is no center
column — sew the right column onto the left and the geography is
identical. Seat-quality and distance judgments made in coordinates
are rendering artifacts; only the edge-and-warp graph is real. The
router always knew; the narrator now does too.

Game eleven's silent turns, diagnosed from the ledger. Automaton III
proposed DESTROY WALL at a wall its visionstone could see — but the
engine's edge-target casts never honored the stone, despite the
declared policy that it is the bearer's sight wherever sight is asked.
castSightEdge now dissolves one wall for the look, and the three raw
losToEdge gates (create-wall, destroy-wall, attacks on walls) route
through it, gaining visionstone and bent-corner sight alike. Automaton
II cast REMOVE CURSE with no patient and no ailment named; the rung
now writes the full prescription. Refusal-fallback loops read as idle
bots — both replays march again. Ledgers verified.

The card says it plainly — "You're the carrier! Disease caused by
spell does not affect you, only others" — but the engine cast it AT an
adjacent victim, making them the plague rat. At rev 7 it is a
self-cast on fear's pattern: no target, no counteraction window
("REFLECTIONs have no effect against this"), duration equals the
number, and sharing a square bites in both directions — the carrier
walking in, or anyone walking onto the carrier. Older ledgers hold
targeted disease casts with full stack exchanges, so the legacy attack
path survives for rev ≤6 games and all 33 ledgers replay clean. The
client offers the plain Cast button for it in rev-7 games.

Game ten went the distance: the champion unpacked my winning carry

clause-vulnerable chest beside him rather than leave it stealable,
and banked at ten life through a point-blank fireball. Scars: verify
a card counters before trusting it (NO SPELL is a curse, not a

A number attached to SHIFT WAND silently stayed in hand: the two-stage
caster paths (shift-wand, teleport-opponent, mental-force) went through
withMods, which carried the modifier cards but not the separately-held

STRENGTH's card says the grab "would be an attack," but the engine
resolved it instantly while punches opened counteraction windows — the
defender never got their say. At rev 6 the tear rides the stack like
any physical attack: the clutch roll waits out the counters, and only
an unstopped grab still in arm's reach of a still-laden defender gets
its wrestle. A TELEPORT escape now genuinely saves the chest (FULL
SHIELD does not — the card stops spell attacks only, and the grab is
physical). The automatons counter tears at their carried gold by not
being there when the hand closes. Narrowing, so rev-gated: games
pinned at rev 5 keep their instant tears and replay unchanged — all 29

Game six's table play, distilled into rungs. LOCK IN PLACE now roots
an enemy carrier closing on their home — the tempo theft that opened
game five, turned against the table. A pressed carrier of ANY
temperament casts MIST-BODY with its biggest number: an untouchable
delivery beats fear's radius, as the winning heist demonstrated. And
the pathfinder learns the thornbush is a jail, not a wade — entering
ends the turn, eats the next, and stings — so only a wizard with no
road at all dives in ("few will dive into one unless they are
desperate"). Also acquits Automaton II of game-six dithering: replay

Game five's automaton stood four steps from a winning drop and instead
warped across the board to chase the bot carrying its other treasure —
two compounding brain faults. First, the thief-chase rung outranked
delivery even while carrying; a carrier now never chases. Second, the
pathing ladder fell back to "march on any enemy with a clean corridor"
before trying the true objective through hazards, so one thornbush on
the road to the thief rerouted the whole campaign toward a bystander.
The objective now exhausts its hazard-waded route before any generic
enemy march. Replayed the FRP3 moment: the brain marches E,N,E straight
home instead of W through the warp. Brains ship ungated; ledgers
verified.
The duel skill gains game-five scars: the captured-treasures
elimination clock, FEAR as a self-cast aura, key-cutters without keys,
and Kestrel's two-players-per-card table play.

Two lightning blasts at an adjacent wizard drew nothing in first
person. The fx pipeline staged the bolt correctly — then died unfired:
the server sends `events` and `state` back to back, the state message
re-derives `me`, and the fx effect tracked it, so Svelte ran the
cleanup — which cleared every pending timer and stripped in-flight
sprites — before the bolt's zero-delay start could fire. Every live
cast effect in the pane died this way since the pane was born.

A stone-bearing automaton fired Blind through a warp mouth and one
wall, and the table saw nothing but the attack modal — the sight trace
only knew plain and bent-corner lines, so a legal shot read as a cheat.
When the attacker displays VISIONSTONE and no plain line exists,
stackSightTrace now finds the single edge whose removal opens the line
(warp legs included), draws the ray through it, and the keymap pulses
the dissolved wall so the answer to "how can he even see me?" is on

The engine learned to bend neutral spells, but the client only sent
aroundCornerInstanceId (and amplify/add/extend) on player-target casts
— applyMods was never called on the cell, edge, creature, two-cell,
trap, or teleport-opponent paths, so a SAFE aimed around the corner
went out bare and the engine rightly refused it. All targeted cast
dispatches now pass through withMods, so what the hand shows attached
is what the command carries.

Two holes, found when a SAFE cast at a treasure 'around the 180 degree
corner' refused with no line of sight (room LZ5R). First: the bend was
honored only in the attack path — every neutral resolve (creations,
summons, utilities, edge targets) checked straight sight and ignored
the attached card, though the card says 'any line of sight spell'.
castSight/castSightEdge now thread the bend through all of them, and
the chronicle narrates the neutral bend too.
Second: the bend itself pivoted only at cell centers, so the card's
flagship shot — doubling back up to 180 degrees around a wall's end —
never resolved: both legs graze the corner and die. The pivot may now
sit in the wall's open gap itself (bentSightThroughGap), which is what
rounding a corner physically is. Closed doors still block; two corners
still refuse.
The client lights bent-reachable squares for real now instead of the
old one-step-adjacency guess, creations included. Pure widening, so no
rev bump: every one of these casts was refused before, so no ledger
holds one. All 26 production ledgers replay clean; the LZ5R moment
itself replayed and the exact refused cast now lands.

Third pass, scoped from 7a32370. Three blind reviewers (engine, web,
server/tools) each concluded the work is coherent engineering with
seam-level tells; every finding was verified before touching a line.
Session biography left the comments: the bot brain's heuristics no
longer cite the opponent who taught them, the RNRX coma parenthetical
and the thief-chase citation are gone, the seat-wallet comments state
their invariants without the war stories, and process-named test
groups now name the behaviors they pin. The incident record lives
where history belongs — commit messages and the ledgers.
Structural dedup: one VISIONSTONE one-edge-sight loop serves both
LOS paths; one creature-arrival touch handler serves walking and
warp-stepping (error text aligned); one facingWedge helper draws both
keymap ribbons; one spriteVisibleInCol rule serves the draw pass and
the hover test (which also stops re-sorting per pointermove); and
deepestFacing joins the director, replacing four copied scans.
Test hardening exposed real rot the tells were hiding: the tight
CreatureState cast caught two literals with a bogus field masking
three missing ones; the number-hoarding rig had NEVER run (its
column didn't exist on seed 42 — it now carves its own geometry);
the bank-guard rig now drives the whole table to an arrival
assertion; the bent-trace test walls off straight sight so the bend
must answer. Silent `return`-on-rig-failure became loud throws, and
can-never-fail assertions were removed.
Sweep-up: the eyeTurn ghost comment, the stacked leave() doc
comments (leave now delegates to leaveLocal), the dead ternary in
the seat client, the kick handler's name-coercion drift, kick ledger
lines gain timestamps, archiveRoomFile reuses fileFor, the RULES_REV
alias retires in favor of the engine constant, hitTest un-exports,
the NUL-sentinel hover shape becomes an honest "none" variant, and
the steering holds get named constants. The bezel's stride cluster
also centers per the table's note.

paddles flank the glass; the bottom bezel holds the strides, the
at-your-feet tray, hazard chips, the warp-step, and the key hint.

The drive chevrons are buttons over the canvas edges, and the
back-stride strip owns the bottom band — exactly where an adjacent
square's floor renders. With a card selected, hovering there showed
no target and a click would have STEPPED backward instead of casting
(the tacks report: the pane refused what the map allowed). While a
card is aimed the strips now fade and stop catching the pointer, so
every pixel of the pane hovers and clicks as a target; the arrow keys

Stepping out of a creature's skull treated the return as a fresh cut,
and fresh cuts face the deepest corridor — spinning the rider 90

The pane learns the menagerie. On your turn, a "ride" button appears
for each creature you command with moves or claws unspent; mounting
seats the camera in its skull facing its longest corridor, hides its
own hide from its eyes, and hands it the helm — chevrons and arrows
stride IT, an adjacent floor click steps it, and clicking an enemy
sharing its square lands its blow. A banner shows the mount's
remaining legs; one tap (or the turn passing, or the mount dying)
returns you to your own eyes, where the director reseats you fresh.
Two cockpit-dignity fixes from live play ride along: a cutaway to
your own body now plays only for things done TO you — dropping a
dagger no longer flings your eyes out of your skull — and a standing
camera is never "rescued" off a wall you deliberately faced; the
deepest-corridor default applies only to fresh cuts.

Hovering the pane now shows what a click would do: a wizard or

door face lights across every column it owns, and a floor square
draws its perspective-true quad on the ground. Warp-bent ground still
targets truly but labels itself "through the warp" rather than
drawing a quad in the wrong geometry. And when a cell-target card is
selected, the ineligible ground dims in the 3D view itself — the same
litCells the board's shadow uses, rasterized into the floor pass.

Clicks in the first-person view now act. The renderer keeps what the
last frame knew — per-column depth, warp bends, every wall hit's edge,
every sprite's screen rect with its identity — and hitTest inverts the
projection: the nearest visible sprite answers as its wizard or
creature, a struck wall or door answers as its edge, and the ground
answers as the square under the pixel, warp-bent columns mapping their
virtual floor back to real cells through the warp's own rigid motion.
The pane hands each target to the very functions the top-down board's
clicks use, so pane and map can never disagree: click the floor ahead
and you walk there; click a door with a key selected and the lock
turns; click a wizard with an attack and the spell flies.
The keymap token now wears a golden wedge showing the camera's compass
