Replaces the named non-canon story from scratch with a new 3,847-word confrontation centered on Ilessa's terrifying presence and freely exercised authority.

An emperor who commands thirty thousand men kneels at her unbarred threshold. Gods withdraw before she uncovers an eye. When a new high god demands her eyes for his crown, she chooses pursuit, removes his escape, offers terms she would honor, and answers his chosen attack. The aftermath sustains that authority: surviving gods carry her in public, the emperor yields her path, and Heaven takes the long way round.

The outline was tested against independent request-only readings before drafting: its actual dramatic center, controlling choices, tension and ending had to serve the complete prompt and the user's correction. Codex and authenticated Claude readers discussed the outline and fresh final whole-story readings with the writer. The final repair keeps the summit confrontation in one gallery; both readers reread the entire revision. Editorial reasoning and preserved first effects are in notes.md.

My readiness judgment rests on that continuing sequence of her decisions, including genuine mercy and controlled restraint, rather than one destructive feat. The public submission retains its coercive edge, and the brief reverse view during annihilation is deliberate.

Includes five separate character sheets, four distinct location paintings, and a new reference-based cover, all visually inspected. The original prompt and supplied image are preserved unchanged, with later directions appended. No shared canon is promoted; canon: false remains.

Validation: whole-story discussion and rereading completed; relevant continuity and names checked; saved image dimensions/formats and unchanged original verified; git diff --check clean. Final prose and cover rated Teen for threatened eye removal and non-graphic divine annihilation.
