Prose beat (excerpt): Silas’s first canvas was a perfect void, a pocket of space he and Echo had cleared of all matter. It was a blank slate, waiting for a new kind of art.
Arc context: Diplomacy band after Echo of “I Am” — two minds → first diplomatic exchange → question back to Us → first draft/revisions → partner in conversation → dialogue particle → first experiments → canvas of light.
Investigative boundary: Distinct from Ch1798–1807 desks 924–932 and prior through Ch1785 (914). Ch1800 still absent — not invented.
Why it matters: Cold-readers can follow the diplomacy/particle turn without inbox or #general.
