book3: finalize Ch02 "The File" + Ch01 and continuity sweep

Ch02 drafted, reviewed, and finalized — ruin case brief, Compact
grievance reveal, grooming hint. Stage 5 continuity across story
summary, timeline, and character files (Phelan, Mere, Ledger, Devod,
Sabre, Holven). Bundles prior-session work: Ch01 final, crystal-drain-
echo series canon, WellsMoon moss hybrid artifacts, and spec cleanup.

 2. **Weeks 1–6:** Scout 1 establishes surveillance, walks the perimeter, catalogs the three mine entrances, cross-references Devod's 20-year-old notes against current terrain. Working notes accumulate in his field journal. Cross-references accurate; survey still holds.
 3. **~Week 6:** Scout 1 tries to force the gate. Ward adapts to his methodology and kills him. (Same mechanism as canonical "wards kill experienced operatives," relocated from the first chamber to the gate.) Final journal entry: a confident hypothesis about the ward's structure, followed by a gap.
