[ERROR] meta/digests/3.1.md ​

  • ours: Castorice ... Former home city named Aidonia. (Also asserted in story doc 05: 'Aidonia (Castorice's former home city)' / '(Castorice's former home; site of a rebel war)'.)
  • wiki: Both reference pages state Castorice's hometown is Styxia, not Aidonia. Amphoreus's History: 'Styxia, the hometown of Polyxia and Castorice, was destroyed by an evil dragon' and 'Anaxa sends Castorice to Styxia ... Castorice reunites with her twin sister, Polyxia.' Chrysos Heirs/History: '[Castorice] was ... sent to Styxia.' The wiki only ties Aidonia to Castorice as her sphere of worship ('Aidonia's renowned Goddess of Death'; 'Aidonia was the first city to experience death'), not as her birthplace.
  • fix: Do not call Aidonia Castorice's home/former home city. It is the city where she is revered as the Goddess of Death (because Aidonia was the first city to experience death); her actual hometown is Styxia (a later-mission reveal). In m05 drop the parenthetical '(Castorice's former home city)' beside Aidonia, or replace with '(the city that reveres Castorice as its Goddess of Death)'. In the digest, remove or reword the 'Former home city named Aidonia' line.

[ERROR] story/3.3-the-fall-at-dawns-rise/06-poet-speak-of-the-sky-through-me-i.md ​

  • ours: Synopsis line 12: 'This mission opens the assault on Aquila, the Sky Titan — the twelfth and final Coreflame of the Flame-Chase Journey.'
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History has Aquila's Coreflame reclaimed and THEN Kephale's Coreflame retrieved from Zagreus and submitted last at the Vortex of Genesis, so Kephale's is the twelfth/final and Aquila is the eleventh. Our own m07 ('Aquila is the eleventh Coreflame; Kephale's is the twelfth and final'), the chapter summary, and the digest all agree Aquila = 11th.
  • fix: Change 'the twelfth and final Coreflame' to 'the eleventh Coreflame (the last Titan the Heirs battle; Kephale's is the twelfth/final)'.

[NUANCE] characters/DEEP-DIVE-CANDIDATES.md ​

  • ours: Hysilens 'ascended as Ocean demigod, froze the palace in time to imprison Lygus, and slept a millennium as his jailer, the first cycle's sole surviving demigod.'
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History: at Year 4602 'leaving only the remaining demigods: Hyacine, Hysilens, and Terravox alive'; Terravox survives and hands the Earth Coreflame to Dan Heng in LC 4931, and Aglaea survived to lead the Second Flame-Chase. Hysilens was not the sole surviving demigod.
  • fix: Drop or qualify the superlative: Hysilens was the lone demigod still standing guard as Lygus's jailer, but Terravox (Earth demigod, later gives his Coreflame to Dan Heng) and Aglaea also survived the first cycle.

[NUANCE] meta/digests/3.2.md ​

  • ours: Cast/key-terms assert in doc-voice: "Kephale (Worldbearing Titan) — The last Titan standing; silent since the Era Erasa" and "Kephale (new/advanced) — the last Titan standing."
  • wiki: "Amphoreus's History" has Aquila alive at this point (fought and killed in the following arc), and the digest's own thread 16 lists "Aquila (Sky, final enemy, seals Amphoreus)" and "Georios/Phagousa referenced" — i.e., other Titans are still around at 3.2, so Kephale is not literally the last standing.
  • fix: Same fix as the chapter summary: soften to "the last Titan still present/governing in the world proper" or mark it as Hyacine's in-story characterization (game line "only one Titan left in the world now") rather than a flat fact, since Aquila (and arguably Phagousa/Zagreus) remain alive.

[NUANCE] meta/digests/3.3.md ​

  • ours: Cast status: 'Mydei — God of Strife; arrived ... to hold the Flame Reaver, again left alone on the battlefield; still guards Castrum Kremnos'; 'Tribbie — ... Stayed above to aid Mydei against the Reaver.' The chapter summary and m09 likewise show them holding the line with no death stated (implying survival).
  • wiki: Both reference pages state the Flame Reaver KILLS Mydei and Tribbie in 'Dawn, Shine at the World's End' (m09) — Amphoreus's History: 'Mydei and Tribbie arrive to stop him ... but the Flame Reaver kills them in battle, before being stalled by Dan Heng in his Imbibitor Lunae form'; Chrysos Heirs/History: 'This lead to Mydei's and Tribbie's deaths.' Only Castorice survives.
  • fix: Reflect that the Flame Reaver kills Mydei and Tribbie during this final stand (Castorice survives); drop the 'still guards Castrum Kremnos' survival implication for Mydei. If the game leaves the on-screen deaths as a cliffhanger resolved in 3.4, at minimum remove the positive survival claim.

[NUANCE] meta/digests/3.3.md ​

  • ours: Cast status: 'Hyacine ... Ascended as the demigod of the Sky (Aquila) via Seliose's bloodline (not Aglaea's selection)'; chapter summary line 13: 'Hyacine, a Twilight Courtyard healer and descendant of the sky-hero Seliose.'
  • wiki: Both reference pages establish today's Skyfolk (Hyacine's line) descend from an unnamed Chrysos Heir whom Seliose spared and blessed — not from Seliose's own blood; Seliose fused with the Titan and left no bloodline. Chrysos Heirs/History: 'an unnamed Skyfolk who was a Chrysos Heir begged for her mercy ... Seliose blessed her and her descendants.' Our own docs reveal this (summary line 15; digest line 36).
  • fix: In cast-status shorthand, replace 'via Seliose's bloodline' / 'descendant of the sky-hero Seliose' with 'of the Skyfolk line Seliose blessed' or 'descendant of the unnamed Heir Seliose spared,' reserving the 'descendant of Seliose' phrasing for the in-world legend the chapter debunks.

[NUANCE] meta/digests/3.5.md ​

  • ours: Cast status lists "Terravox (Earth, d. 3961)" flatly among the fallen Heirs, presenting a confirmed death identical to the genuinely-dead Heirs.
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History says only that in "Year 3961... Terravox... cannot be located" / "is believed to have fallen," and then in "Year 4602... the remaining demigods: Hyacine, Hysilens, and Terravox [are] alive" — i.e., Terravox did not actually die in 3961 (it faked/evaded death). The 3961 date is a presumed-fallen record, not an actual death.
  • fix: Hedge to "believed fallen/vanished LC 3961" (or note 3961 is Terravox's tombstone/presumed-death record), since the reference lists Terravox still alive at LC 4602. Note: mission 06's tombstone ("d. 3961") is fine as-is because it explicitly reproduces the in-world tombstone inscription; only the digest's unqualified cast-status assertion flattens the hedge.

[NUANCE] meta/story-so-far.md ​

  • ours: 3.3: '...taken in by Aglaea the Goldweaver, herself a Chrysos Heir, who secretly faked the death of the Trickery Titan Zagreus ... at his ascension trial' — the 'who' clause naturally attaches to Aglaea, attributing the Zagreus death-fake to her.
  • wiki: Chrysos Heirs/History: 'Cipher becomes the demigod of Trickery. However, she fooled everyone into believing that Zagreus died.' Cipher, not Aglaea, faked Zagreus's death (she bears his Trickery authority).
  • fix: Rephrase to make CIPHER the actor, e.g.: '...an orphan thief of Dolos taken in by the Chrysos Heir Aglaea the Goldweaver; Cipher secretly faked the death of the Trickery Titan Zagreus (now the "Spirithief" Bartholos) at his ascension trial.'

[NUANCE] story/3.0-heroic-saga-of-flame-chase/08-kremnos-cleanse-thy-rusted-blood-ii.md ​

  • ours: Eurypon's death by Mydei's hand is stated as established fact: "these people cannot yet know that Eurypon was eventually killed by Mydei" (line 28), "later killed by Mydei" (line 153), "Mydei's ... killing of Eurypon are treated as established backstory" (line 168); echoed in meta/digests/3.0.md ("killed King Eurypon") and 00-chapter-summary.md.
  • wiki: Chrysos Heirs/History says only that "Eventually, Mydei overthrew his father's reign, yet didn't restore the dynasty of his father, opting to go to Okhema" — it never states Mydei killed Eurypon (and in the separate error-log recurrence, Amphoreus's History even has Eurypon alive alongside Mydei). The wiki uses the non-lethal verb "overthrew."
  • fix: Soften to "overthrew Eurypon's reign / deposed his father" or mark Eurypon's death with [?], unless the 3.0 in-game text explicitly narrates the killing. Avoid asserting the death as flat fact when the reference deliberately says "overthrew."

[NUANCE] story/3.2-through-the-petals-in-the-land-of-repose/00-chapter-summary.md ​

  • ours: Kephale is repeatedly called an absolute in doc-voice: "an audience with Kephale, the last living Titan" and "Kephale (new/advanced) — the last Titan standing."
  • wiki: "Amphoreus's History" shows Aquila (Sky Titan) is still a living Titan at Year 4931 and is confronted/defeated only in the next arc ("Hyacine, Phainon... confront Aquila... and defeat them"). The chapter summary itself elsewhere says the Trailblazer is "Still trapped by Aquila's sky-seal" and names Aquila "the Flame-Chase's final great enemy," so Kephale is not the last living Titan.
  • fix: This flattens Hyacine's in-context, trailing-off line (m03 wikitext: "There's only one Titan left in the world now—", said only about which Titan Anaxa could fuse with) into a flat lore fact. Qualify it, e.g. "the last Titan still present/reachable within the world proper (Aquila still holds the sky, sealed in the Eye of Twilight; Phagousa lies chained/mad)" or attribute it to Hyacine rather than asserting it.

[NUANCE] story/3.3-the-fall-at-dawns-rise/00-chapter-summary.md ​

  • ours: State of the world: 'Cipher (Cifera) — ... Revealed as a founding-era demigod (~1,000 years, of Tribios/Aglaea's generation).'
  • wiki: The reference dates Cipher's birth to Year 3942 and her Trickery ascension to ~4031 — junior to Aglaea (born 3860, ascended ~3930), and far junior to the Tribios (ascended 3760). Aglaea is her mentor/guardian (she took orphan Cifera in), i.e. an earlier generation, not a peer. The digest and m08 correctly call both her seniors.
  • fix: Change 'of Tribios/Aglaea's generation' to 'junior to Aglaea (her mentor) and the Tribios,' matching the digest and m08. (Caveat: 3.3's own text shows Cipher wielding Trickery ~1,000 years ago, near Aglaea's era, so the '~1,000 years' figure itself is fine; only the peer/'generation' grouping overstates seniority.)

[NUANCE] story/3.4-for-the-sun-is-set-to-die/01b-hero-return-to-that-peace-of-home.md ​

  • ours: Optional 'Eternal Recurrence' memory fragments ... show different companions surviving to walk the final stretch at his side across the loops — ... the silenced Tribbie (#24581189) ...
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History, Eternal Recurrence section: 'Eternal Recurrence #24,581,189 — Phainon made it to the end of the recurrence alone, holding what is likely a doll of Tribbie.'
  • fix: Move #24581189 out of the 'companions surviving to walk at his side' list, or reword to make clear that in this loop Phainon reached the end ALONE, carrying only a doll of Tribbie (parallel to the 'memory-only Anaxa' #67023 entry). As written it groups an 'alone' recurrence under surviving companions; the 'silenced' qualifier softens but does not correct this.

[NUANCE] story/3.6-back-to-earth-in-evernight/06-earth-bear-the-suffering-of-all.md ​

  • ours: In the Key characters list, Hysilens is described as "the Ocean demigod's specter; the last demigod still alive" (line 98). The 3.6 digest echoes this: "last demigod still 'alive'" (line 23).
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History (Year 4602): after humanity's extinction, "leaving only the remaining demigods: Hyacine, Hysilens, and Terravox alive"; then Hyacine fuses with Aquila, "leaving Hysilens and Terravox alive." So Terravox is also still alive — and indeed appears alive (frail and dying) in this very mission, where he bequeaths the Earth Coreflame to Dan Heng; Castorice/Thanatos is likewise present as a living Death demigod.
  • fix: Drop the exclusive superlative. Use e.g. "the last demigod still openly active/publicly known-alive — Terravox also survives, hidden and dying" or "one of the last surviving demigods." Soften the digest's echoing line the same way.

[UNCERTAIN] story/3.6-back-to-earth-in-evernight/01-night-coming-before-dawn-breaks.md ​

  • ours: "March arrived first, 97 days early" / "March 7th entered Amphoreus 97 days ahead of the Trailblazer and Dan Heng" (lines 76, 89), synthesizing the two game facts (arrived before them + wandered 97 days) into a single claim that only 97 days separated the arrivals. The chapter summary and digest repeat "97 days before the Trailblazer."
  • wiki: Amphoreus's History places March's arrival at Year 3760, Month of Evernight (helping Tribios flee the Temple of the Three Fates), and states "After 97 days of wandering, Lygus spots March 7th and... Evernight takes control of her body." The Trailblazer and Dan Heng arrive in Year 4931 — so the "97 days" is March's wandering span before Evernight claimed her body, not the interval before the Trailblazer's arrival; by calendar the gap is ~1,171 years.
  • fix: Reframe as "March wandered ~97 days as an unseen ghost before Evernight claimed her body" rather than implying only 97 days separated the two arrivals; optionally flag the Year 3760-vs-4931 calendar gap as part of Amphoreus's nonlinear recurrence-time (the sources themselves are paradoxical here, so the game's 'arrived just before' framing may be the intended reconciliation).

[UNCERTAIN] story/3.7-as-tomorrow-became-yesterday/07-fallen-petals-leave-fading-traces-of-fragrance.md ​

  • ours: Cyrene plants the "ceremonial blade" in the Sacrament Courtyard of Aedes Elysiae as the Remembrance's anchor (same wording in 00-chapter-summary.md, 01-dawn..., and meta/digests/3.7.md).
  • wiki: Both reference timelines state the anchor the Demiurge plants in the Sacrament Courtyard is "the ceremonial staff," not a blade (Amphoreus's History line 590; Chrysos Heirs/History line 508).
  • fix: Reconcile the anchor's name. The reference pages call it a "ceremonial staff" for the Remembrance anchor, yet Amphoreus's History (line 119) separately calls the object Cyrene imbues her soul into a "blade" — so the wiki is itself inconsistent, and the two may be one object or two. Verify the actual in-game term before finalizing; if the anchor and the soul-vessel are the same object, note that; if distinct, our docs may be conflating the "blade" with the "staff."
