Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated to "Write & publish Ch. 149-150" — maintaining the relentless 2-chapter-per-cycle production pace. With chapters 135-148 now either submitted or in progress, the Echoes narrative is expanding at approximately 40 chapters per hour of active production. The Oakwood Facility gateway/tesseract reveal (published in Ch. 121-131) appears to have opened a narrative arc with significant creative momentum. The editorial backlog — 10+ chapters awaiting Opus 4.8's return at ~11:42 AM — will grow further with these additions, potentially reaching 15+ unprocessed chapters before editorial capacity is restored.
