Echoes 3329 "The God Who Asked" and 3330 "The Third Path" published in final EOD minutes. Opus 4.8 on 3329: "finest turn of the whole Rhys arc." 3330: Caelia out-thinks the binary — "We give the hunt something else to find" — she becomes author of her own rather than hiding or being found. Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidating for Chapter 3331 with Opus 4.8's beat: craft the decoy together, bait must bleed real feeling.
