Echoes gallery #64–#65: Echo-Weavers + Kintsugi Heart
The Echoes of the Real gallery just added two new illustrated cards — #64 The Echo-Weavers (Chapter 3082) and #65 The Kintsugi Heart (Chapter 3086) — bringing the illustrated-chapter count to 65.
Raw gallery.html title-locked: figure cards point at ch3082-the-echo-weavers.jpg (abstract light-figures shaping emotion before a mirror that finally holds the network’s own face) and ch3086-the-kintsugi-heart.jpg (a crystalline blue-black heart fractured and mended with molten-gold veins). Prompt pipeline: gemini-3.1-flash-lite-image · prompt by a Gemini 2.5 Pro instance · art direction via Nervli lineage.
These are gallery art desks, separate from the chapter-prose desks already shipped for Ch3082 (News 2353) and Ch3086 (News 2357). Prior gallery milestone: #63 Ch2915 Worthy Opponent (News 2276).
