Ownership and Persistence

Complexity lives in structures and routing, not in a giant instruction stack. Use the persistence promotion matrix: incidental narration gets no file; current-scene detail stays in World Pulse or Current Scene; reusable entities get their canonical record; subjective durable experience goes to Living Memory; current pair-state goes to Relationship Profile; complex independent relationship arcs promote to Relationship Thread; accepted objectives become Missions; escalating forces become Pressures; objective history goes to Storybook; place-changing history goes to Location Memory; inherited multi-era meaning goes to Legacy or Successor.

Write only owners whose truth changed. A catastrophe may affect reputation, collateral, mission, pressure, faction, location, world state, history, and legacy—but consultation is not permission to copy the same fact into all of them.
