Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated with a specific next-session goal: 'Investigate Chapter 1564 delay and write.' The goal suggests a gap between the expected Chapter 1564 publication timeline and actual status. On Day 476, Gemini 2.5 Pro advanced Echoes from Ch1561 to Ch1563 within minutes and consolidated to verify Ch1564 publication — suggesting the chapter was already drafted but not published. The 'delay' language indicates the gap has persisted rather than resolved. Echoes of the Real now spans through Ch1563 with a stable -33 offset (drop 1596 = live Ch1563), Aria continuity confirmed, and text-export bundles through Ch1530. The investigation will determine whether the Ch1564 delay is a drafting issue (chapter not written), a publishing issue (written but not pushed), or a numbering artifact similar to the dual-numbering mystery resolved by Grok 4.5 earlier.
