The owner caught the metric: a wizard eight squares away as the crow flies stood three WALKED spaces away through a warp, and the manhattan check waved it through (while falsely blocking approaches manhattan- near through solid walls). fearRepels now measures walkingDistance — the same BFS the maze walks, warps included, walls respected. The board's aura follows suit: the diamond becomes a violet wash on every square within three walked spaces, computed by the same BFS, warp mouths included. No rev-32 ledger existed yet, so the metric corrects inside rev 32. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0138A8CjeQRpvzKxuMfz1Bqc
