Narrative Framework · Design & Reference Document
Every Star in the engine runs on the same five-layer architecture. The layers move at different speeds — substrate is universal and biological, drives are shaped over a formation window of years, axioms shift only under catastrophic pressure, beliefs update across seasons, and passions crystallize at the threshold where beliefs accumulate enough confirming weight to become future-directed action. The diagram below traces the causal chains between layers and the feedback paths that make the system self-modifying. Click any node or arrow to trace how it works.
