Phelan's life is settling — Mere pregnant, Kimra re-entering his orbit, the house plans at revision 12 — when the Compact files a formal grievance reopening the Book 1 qualifications inquiry — the one Ledger got withdrawn — with the Book 2 crystal break as new evidence. Relief sought: strip his certification and expel him from the guild. Ledger ships him to a pre-Compact ruin on Duchess Pamira's territory to get him out of reach while the procedural fight runs, but the ruin is a test and a showcase: Ledger has been grooming him for elevation, and the grievance is the pressure that forces the move. Inside the ruin is a sealed weapon that magnifies any working 15-fold. Phelan opens the seal to understand it, then has to build a perfect lock against his own ability — and do it before Cass, burned by his own institution, arrives with the Compact's enforcement force at his back.

**The Compact is the real antagonist.** Cass is the face. The book's institutional confrontation and personal confrontation are the same confrontation at two scales. **Mere's pregnancy is the Act 3 stakes engine** — the Compact arc threatens her directly when enforcement officers arrive at the estate where she is staying.

## POV
|
||||
|
||||
Pure Phelan first-person, past tense, throughout. Kimra's subplot is processed through his noise. Pamira is seen mostly through Devod's interactions. Cass's arc is off-page until Ch19. The Compact enforcement arrival is seen from Phelan's position (ruin during the breach, estate during the standoff and elevation).
