+# Unprimed Full-Manuscript Cold Read
+
+## Scope
+
+The reader received only [[Full Manuscript]]. They did not read the Revision Council, scene packets, Persona streams, calendars, ledgers, or earlier manuscript.
+
+## Findings
+
+- The relative chronology is reconstructable: Harrowglass presents the historical endpoint; Meridian runs from sophomore selection through the last school day; Palisade begins immediately at dinner and reaches Saint Varo roughly thirty-five hours later.
+- The five contemporary characters, five Calyx predecessors, Vey, Rhea, upper cadres, named peers, and AFTER remain distinct. Calyx reads as precedent rather than reincarnation.
+- The reverse braid is productively disorienting early and becomes causally legible at first/full Concordance. Exact historical dates remain intentionally secondary to the lived causal order.
+- Emotional investment is high in the voluntary household, Omi/Lio/Vey ward history, Iri's bodily authority, Lio's medicine/flight split, Senn/Rhea, and AFTER's learned refusal.
+- The full academic year feels inhabited through classes, labs, projects, paid shifts, marks, clinic rules, household recurrence, holidays, finals, placements, and ordinary peers who retain their own work.
+- Teenage voice is credible for elite overtrained cadets. Humor, embarrassment, food, crushes, school resentment, and failed emotional speech keep technical fluency from becoming adult omniscience.
+- The climax remains clear in strategic and political shape. Tactical density occasionally produces intended cognitive pressure, while stable plant anchors and worker-owned terms preserve orientation.
+- The ending is satisfying and provisional: workers refuse rescue ownership, Morrow refuses entry and provides aid, Saint Varo admits six separate claims, and AFTER initiates peer contact.
+
+## Reader Risks
+
+- Early Calyx episodes may initially be mistaken for a separate story. A small era cue was added beneath Mara's opening POV without supplying later identity answers.
+- The middle movement contains many complete institutional pressure-cooker chapters. Future compression should be considered only if a second reader reports fatigue; the current school recurrence is doing essential character and political work.
+- Dense Palisade action sometimes privileges ethical and operational clarity over exact tactical visualization. No outcome or authority boundary became illegible.
+
+## Verdict
+
+No fatal character, timeline, braid, climax, or ending problem was found. The manuscript is suitable for promotion after mechanical assembly and EPUB checks.

+# Phase 5 Report
+
+## Outcome
+
+Revision 01 is promoted.
+
+- [[Full Manuscript]] is the accepted sixty-nine-chapter source.
+- [[Cold Reader Report]] records the unprimed manuscript-only read.
+- [[Promotion Audit]] records the final structural, continuity, hash, and EPUB receipts.
+- `Aetheria/Fiction/The Body That Asks.md` is byte-identical to the accepted source.
+- `Aetheria/static/fiction/the-body-that-asks.epub` was rebuilt and validated from the promoted manuscript.
+
+## Final Shape
+
+- 66,588 words
+- three movements
+- sixty-nine chapters
+- sixty-nine explicit POV labels
+- ten adjacent Calyx/Meridian comparison pairs
+- one full sophomore year followed by the immediate Palisade/Necro crisis and materially elapsed aftermath
+
+## Authority
+
+The promoted Fiction manuscript now governs. Phase 4 movement drafts remain reconstructable source chambers; Phase 3 transactions and Persona streams remain the causal evidence for future revision. The prior twenty-eight-chapter manuscript remains in repository history and the completed original Foundry passes rather than retaining publication authority.

+
+## Candidate
+
+- **Source:** [[Full Manuscript]]
+- **Length:** 66,588 words by repository shell count
+- **Structure:** three movements, sixty-nine chapters, sixty-nine explicit POV labels
+- **Assembly:** exact concatenation of the three accepted Phase 4 movement files, with Movement II/III heading levels normalized to the publication scheme
+
+## Passed Gates
+
+- Final structural, voice/theme, and Foundry continuity reviews report no blocker.
+- Unprimed full-manuscript reader reports no fatal continuity, braid, climax, or ending problem.
+- Chapters are unique and continuous from 1 through 69.
+- Ten Calyx/Meridian pairs remain adjacent in the accepted order.
+- Accepted names, pronouns, ward asymmetry, support ownership, and one continuous AFTER history remain intact.
+- Chapter 56 contains the destination order; Chapter 57 owns Palisade's operational map and clean brief.
+- Protected no-slogan, anti-reincarnation, Necro, Vey, worker-route, refusal, Morrow, and six-entry ending material remains present.
+- The assembled file exactly matches the reviewed movement sources after deterministic heading normalization.

 ## Accepted Outputs

 - Phase 2B adjudicated proposals and accepted a sixty-nine-chapter explicit-POV transaction blueprint.
 - Phase 3 accepted sixty-nine scene transactions, the exact ten-pair POV braid, named ordinary-school continuity, a lived-order Calyx replay, and twelve gapless Persona streams on `revision-01-main`.
 - Phase 4 produced and reviewed sixty-nine chapters of candidate prose across three movements. Final blocker checks found the candidate structurally and narratively ready for whole-book integration.
-- Phase 5 must assemble the complete candidate, verify cross-movement prose and terminology, and promote only after manuscript-level review. Changes to POV, chronology, ancestry, mystery timing, academic ownership, or protected material return to Phase 3 replay before descendants continue.
-- Candidate revision prose remains noncanonical; the promoted Fiction manuscript governs until final integration and promotion.
+- Phase 5 assembled the candidate, passed unprimed manuscript review and final continuity checks, promoted the Fiction manuscript, and rebuilt and validated the sixty-nine-chapter EPUB.
+- Revision 01 is complete. Future changes to POV, chronology, ancestry, mystery timing, academic ownership, or protected material return to Phase 3 replay before descendants continue.
