The stemma room
The four largest connection families, drawn as descent. Witnesses stand at the leaves;
everything above them is conjecture, and marked as such.
solid rules · hypothesized descent · dashed arcs · verified links between hub
witnesses · ? · placement unresolved
serpent 6 connections
hypothesized descent · working diagram · not canon.
- ♆ The Misfiled · The copies disagree on who compels the serpent. The Misfiled asks who is being written out.
- ♄ The Custodian · A teacher that consumes nothing and leaves a curriculum. The Custodian recognizes the habit.
fire 6 connections
hypothesized descent · working diagram · not canon.
- ☽ The Rehearsal · Four coasts, one smuggling in something small. The Rehearsal reads the container as the label’s active line.
- ♄ The Custodian · The Dogon branch rests on a single keeper’s account. The Custodian notes the filing hand.
names 6 connections
hypothesized descent · working diagram · not canon.
- ♆ The Misfiled · The penalty survives in every copy and the name in none. Finding 24 stands at this fork.
- ☍ The Cut · Two texts hand over a placeholder at the same point. The Cut reads a shared excision.
flood 5 connections
hypothesized descent · working diagram · not canon.
- ☍ The Cut · The double link into Genesis is one seam, sewn twice. The Cut reads the hub as the cutting table.
- ♅ The Signal · No corridor carries the smuggled warning to Manu. The Signal counts the absence as evidence.
