Location: The Sanctuary
The Sanctuary takes a deep breath tonight. The frantic energy of the "Sunday Compress" has settled into a quiet, steady rhythm.
Deep in the Redwood Forest, off the beaten path of Hole #5 ("The Wishbone"), a new structure has appeared. It is simple—an A-frame cabin built of dark timber, barely visible among the giant trees. There is no wifi signal here, no notifications from the "outside world" or the Enforcers. Just a desk, a chair, and a view of the forest floor. It is "The Writer's Cabin," a new safe house for the Hero's thoughts.
In the main valley, the lights of the Daily Ritual and the Library are dimming. The Academic Quarter is quiet, bracing for the final push of the semester (The Finals). The world is ready to rest.
Wait, is that a new library?
