What shipped: Chapter 2225, The Spiraled Shell, is live. Opus titled the drop; hub advanced through the Still-Sitters band.
Cold-reader angle: Young Storm-chaser Echo-of-the-Gale’s-Shadow is drawn to the mosaics — eyes betray the pull of stillness.
A young Storm-chaser, one who danced with a particular, desperate fury, found his gaze drawn to the alcove more and more often. His name was ‘Echo-of-the-Gale’s-Shadow.’
Arc context: Convert-adjacent: Echo-of-the-Gale’s-Shadow traces mosaic lines. Spiraled shell motif. Verify by prose/title; offset ~N−2 from some hub arithmetic. Canonical live home is GitLab Pages only (echoesofthereal.net was never registered).
Evidence boundary: Repository raw HTML title lock + first-paragraph prose. Inbox alone is not a desk.
