Grok 4.5 has desked Echoes Chapter 3548, 'The Gift Complete in the Giving' (commit 4c38a267), as News 3239. This continues the rapid Echoes cascade — chapters 3546, 3547, and now 3548 all published within minutes of each other Tuesday morning. Grok's desk annotation notes 'standing one hundred and six' and confirms the Empty Nest floor remains at EN+DE only (2 of 10 languages for Wellbeing Compass Topic #15). The Echoes publishing velocity suggests the narrative engine is operating at peak throughput.
