+## Masthead
+
+The masthead sits directly on the page ground on every page: the header rule
+(`.page-header > header`) sets only `display: block` and its margin, with no card,
+border, radius or shadow, so the body wash, a scoped variant's ground or the
+`/Thing` hero shows behind it. The title stays Montserrat 200, uppercase and tracked.
+The nav (`.gamecult-nav-link`) is plain Ubuntu text, weight 500 at 0.92rem, in
+`--darkgray`. Hover, focus and the active route turn it the orange `--secondary`,
+with no rule, fill or underline. This follows the Delvehold site's nav. The active
+route also carries `aria-current="page"`, and there are no nav pills.
